The region represented by x - y ≤ 2 and x + y ≤ 2 is bounded by a
Options
- Arhombus of area 8 2   sq .   units .
- Brhombus of side length 2 units.
- Csquare of area 16   sq .   units .
- Dsquare of side length 2 2 units.
Correct answer
D. square of side length 2 2 units.
Step-by-step solution
x + y = 2 ⇒ x + y = 2 and x + y = – 2 x – y = 2   ⇒ x   – y = 2 and x – y = – 2 So, the region bounded by the given curves, i.e., pairs of straight lines, is a square. Now, length of side of square = distance between parallel lines x + y = 2 and x + y = - 2 = 2 - - 2 1 + 1 = 4 2 = 2 2
