Correct answer: B
- Find the triangle vertices
The sides of the triangle are:
Let us find their pairwise intersections.
-
From and : so Vertex: .
-
From and : From , hence Vertex: .
-
From and : From , hence Vertex: .
So the triangle has vertices:
- Consider the vertical line
We need points of the form: that lie on or inside the triangle.
So we intersect the line with the sides of the triangle.
- Intersection with each side
-
On :
-
On :
-
On :
So the line meets the three side-lines at:
- Determine the segment inside the triangle
The triangle vertices have -coordinates , so the line passes through the interior of the triangle.
At , the relevant boundary points of the triangle are on the two sides meeting the left vertex region, namely the segment joining to and the segment joining to .
These correspond to:
- ,
- .
Thus the allowed values of are:
So,
- smallest value of is ,
- largest value of is .
- Compute the product
So the required product is
This corresponds to Option B.
