Let be the distance of the point of intersection of the lines and from the point . Then is equal to :
- A75
- B78
- C72
- D69
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: A
- Write the two lines in parametric form
For the line we get
For the line we get
- Find their point of intersection
At the intersection, coordinates must be equal:
From (3):
Substitute into (2): Then
Now substitute into either line to get the intersection point:
So the point of intersection is
- Find the distance from
Distance squared is
Thus,
- Match with the options
The correct option is which is Option A.
