If the point (a, a) are placed in between the lines |x+y|=4 then
Options
- A|a|=2
- B|a|=3
- C|a| 2
- D|a| 3
Correct answer
C. |a| 2
Step-by-step solution
Lines x+y=4 and x+y=-4 are parallel and points (2,2) and (-2,-2) lie on these lines. If point (a, a) lies between the lines then a -2 and a 2 i.e.,
