The line passing through (-1, 2 ) and perpendicular to 3 +2 = 4 r is :
Options
- A2= 3 r -2 r
- B5=-2 3 r +4 r
- C2= 3 r +2 r
- D5=2 3 r +4 r
Correct answer
A. 2= 3 r -2 r
Step-by-step solution
Given, 3 +2 = 4 r ...(i) Any line perpendicular to Eq. (i) is 3 ( 2 + )+2 ( 2 + )= k r 3 -2 = k r It passes through (-1, 2 ) , then 3 2 -2 2 = k -1 -2= k -1 k=2 Thus, the equation is 3 -2 = 2 r 3 r -2 r =2
