The co-ordinates of point on the line x+y+3=0 , whose distance from the line x+2 y+2=0 is 5 units, are
Options
- A(-1,-4)
- B(1,-4)
- C(-1,4)
- D(1,4)
Correct answer
B. (1,-4)
Step-by-step solution
Any point on the line x+y+3=0 can be taken as (k,-3-k) Now, its distance from x+2 y+2=0 is aligned & |k+2 (-3-k)+2| 1^2+2^2 = 5 & 1-k-41=5 & -k-4= 5 & k=1,-9 aligned for k=1 the point is (1,-4)
