If the area of the rhombus enclosed by the lines x ± y ± n = 0 be 2 square units, then
Options
- An 2 = 4
- Bn 2 = 2
- Cn 2 = 1 2
- Dn 2 = 1
Correct answer
D. n 2 = 1
Step-by-step solution
By solving the equation of the sides of the rhombus, its vertices are 0 , - n 1 , - n 1 , 0 , 0 , n 1 and n 1 , 0 ∴ area = 1 2 × 2 n 1 × 2 n 1 = 2 ⇒ n 2 =1
