Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\sqrt 2 \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Equation of the line passing through the point \((2,3)\) and \((4,5)\) \(y - 3 = \left( {\frac{{5 - 3}}{{4 - 2}}} \right)x - 2 \Rightarrow x - y + 1 = 0\,\,\,\,\,\,.......\left( 1 \right)\) Equation of the perpendicular line passing through the midpoint…
