Let \(\sqrt 3 \hat i + j,\hat i + \sqrt 3 \hat j\) and \(\beta \hat i + \left( {1 + \beta } \right)\hat j\) respectively be the position vectors of the points \(A,B\) and \(C\) with respect to the origin \(O\). If the distance of \(C\) from the bisector of the acute angle between \(OA\) and \(OB\) is \(\frac{3}{{\sqrt 2 }}\) , then the sum of all possible values of \(\beta \) is 

  1. A \(4\)
  2. B \(3\)
  3. C \(2\)
  4. D \(1\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(1\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Equation of angle bisector of DA and OB is \(y=x\) Given that, \(\left|\frac{\beta-(1-\beta)}{\sqrt{2}}\right|=\frac{3}{\sqrt{2}}\) \(2 \beta-1=\pm 3\) \(\Rightarrow \beta=2,-1\) Sum of values of \(\beta=1\)
