A line, with the slope greater than one, passes through the point A(4,3)andintersectsthelineA\left(4, 3\right) and intersects the linex - y - 2 = 0atthepointat the pointB.Ifthelengthofthelinesegment. If the length of the line segmentABisis\dfrac{\sqrt{29}}{3},then, thenB$ also lies on the line

Options

  1. A2x+y=92x + y = 9
  2. B3x−2y=73x - 2y = 7
  3. Cx+2y=6x + 2y = 6
  4. D2x−3y=32x - 3y = 3

Correct answer

C. x+2y=6x + 2y = 6

Step-by-step solution

Given point BB lie on the line x−y−2=0x - y - 2 = 0, so the point will be B(x1,x1−2)B\left({x}_{1}, {x}_{1} - 2\right)

Now given distance between ABAB is 293\dfrac{\sqrt{29}}{3}, so by distance formula,

(x1−4)2+(x1−2−3)2=293\sqrt{{\left({x}_{1} - 4\right)}^{2} + {\left({x}_{1} - 2 - 3\right)}^{2}} = \dfrac{\sqrt{29}}{3}

Now on squaring on both side we get,

18x12−162x1+340=018{x}_{1}^{2} - 162{x}_{1} + 340 = 0

On solving we get, x1=519{x}_{1} = \dfrac{51}{9} or x1=103{x}_{1} = \dfrac{10}{3}

So, y1=339{y}_{1} = \dfrac{33}{9} or y1=43{y}_{1} = \dfrac{4}{3}

Now we can see only x+2y=6x + 2y = 6 will satisfy the point \left(\dfrac{10}{3}, \dfrac{4}{3}\right)
