Correct answer: A

  1. Given line and its slope

The given line is y+1=32 xy+1=3\sqrt{2}\,xy+1=32​x So, y=32 x−1y=3\sqrt{2}\,x-1y=32​x−1 Hence its slope is m1=32m_1=3\sqrt{2}m1​=32​

  1. Required angle condition

We need a line through (1,3)(1,3)(1,3) making angle θ=tan⁡−1(2)\theta=\tan^{-1}(\sqrt{2})θ=tan−1(2​) with the given line.

If the required line has slope mmm, then angle between two lines satisfies tan⁡θ=∣m−m11+mm1∣\tan\theta=\left|\frac{m-m_1}{1+mm_1}\right|tanθ=​1+mm1​m−m1​​​ Thus, ∣m−321+32m∣=2\left|\frac{m-3\sqrt{2}}{1+3\sqrt{2}m}\right|=\sqrt{2}​1+32​mm−32​​​=2​

So we solve: m−321+32m=±2\frac{m-3\sqrt{2}}{1+3\sqrt{2}m}=\pm\sqrt{2}1+32​mm−32​​=±2​

  1. Find possible slopes

Case 1:

m−321+32m=2\frac{m-3\sqrt{2}}{1+3\sqrt{2}m}=\sqrt{2}1+32​mm−32​​=2​

Then, m−32=2(1+32m)m-3\sqrt{2}=\sqrt{2}(1+3\sqrt{2}m)m−32​=2​(1+32​m) m−32=2+6mm-3\sqrt{2}=\sqrt{2}+6mm−32​=2​+6m −5m=42-5m=4\sqrt{2}−5m=42​ m=−425m=-\frac{4\sqrt{2}}{5}m=−542​​

Case 2:

m−321+32m=−2\frac{m-3\sqrt{2}}{1+3\sqrt{2}m}=-\sqrt{2}1+32​mm−32​​=−2​

Then, m−32=−2(1+32m)m-3\sqrt{2}=-\sqrt{2}(1+3\sqrt{2}m)m−32​=−2​(1+32​m) m−32=−2−6mm-3\sqrt{2}=-\sqrt{2}-6mm−32​=−2​−6m 7m=227m=2\sqrt{2}7m=22​ m=227m=\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{7}m=722​​

So the two possible slopes are m=−425,m=227m=-\frac{4\sqrt{2}}{5},\qquad m=\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{7}m=−542​​,m=722​​

  1. Equation of lines through (1,3)(1,3)(1,3)

Using point-slope form: y−3=m(x−1)y-3=m(x-1)y−3=m(x−1)

For m=−425m=-\dfrac{4\sqrt{2}}{5}m=−542​​:

y−3=−425(x−1)y-3=-\frac{4\sqrt{2}}{5}(x-1)y−3=−542​​(x−1) 5y−15=−42x+425y-15=-4\sqrt{2}x+4\sqrt{2}5y−15=−42​x+42​ 42x+5y−(15+42)=04\sqrt{2}x+5y-(15+4\sqrt{2})=042​x+5y−(15+42​)=0 This matches Option A.

For m=227m=\dfrac{2\sqrt{2}}{7}m=722​​:

y−3=227(x−1)y-3=\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{7}(x-1)y−3=722​​(x−1) 7y−21=22x−227y-21=2\sqrt{2}x-2\sqrt{2}7y−21=22​x−22​ 22x−7y+(21−22)=02\sqrt{2}x-7y+(21-2\sqrt{2})=022​x−7y+(21−22​)=0 This is not among the options.

  1. Check options
  • A: 42x+5y−(15+42)=04\sqrt{2}x+5y-(15+4\sqrt{2})=042​x+5y−(15+42​)=0 ✓
  • B: slope =−524=-\dfrac{5\sqrt{2}}{4}=−452​​, not valid.
  • C: does not pass through (1,3)(1,3)(1,3).
  • D: slope =425=\dfrac{4\sqrt{2}}{5}=542​​, not valid.

Therefore, the correct option is: A\boxed{A}A​
