  1. A \(1,-1\)
  2. B \(\dfrac{1}{2},-1\)
  3. C \(1, \dfrac{1}{2}\)

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(-2, \dfrac{1}{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The given line is \(3x - y = -5\), which can be written in the slope-intercept form \(y = 3x + 5\). The slope of this line is \(m_1 = 3\). Let the slope of the required lines be \(m\). The angle between the lines is given as \(45^{\circ}\). Using the formula for the angle…
