Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(70\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Image of \(\mathrm{P}\) wrt \(\mathrm{x}\)-axis will be \(\mathrm{P}^{\prime}(1,-2)\) equation of line joining P'R will be \(\mathrm{y}-3=\frac{5}{3}(\mathrm{x}-4)\) Above line will meet \(\mathrm{x}\)-axis at \(\mathrm{Q}\) where…
