Let O be the origin and A be the point . If B is the point , , such that OAB is a right angled isosceles triangle with OB as hypotenuse, then which of the following is NOT true?
- A
- B
- C
- D
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: D
-
Given points
Let
We are told that is a right-angled isosceles triangle with as hypotenuse.
-
Interpret the geometry
Since is the hypotenuse, the right angle is at .
Also, because the triangle is isosceles, the two equal sides are:
Now,
So we must have and
-
Use vector form
At point , the vectors are:
Since they are perpendicular,
Also, , so
-
Solve for
From (1):
Put into (2):
If , then so
If , then so
But given , we take
-
Now check each option
Option A
This lies in quadrant II, so So A is true.
Option B
Compute: Hence So B is true.
Option C
So C is true.
Option D
Compute: Therefore, which is not equal to .
So D is NOT true.
-
Final conclusion
The statement which is NOT true is:
