If the line \(3 x+4 y-24=0\) intersects \(X\) and \(Y\) axes in points \(A\) and \(B\) respectively then incenter of the triangle \(O A B\) where \(O\) is origin is

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

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \((2,2)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(X\)-intercept (\(A\)): \(3x+4(0)-24=0 \Rightarrow 3x=24 \Rightarrow x=8\). So \(A=(8,0)\). \(Y\)-intercept (\(B\)): \(3(0)+4y-24=0 \Rightarrow 4y=24 \Rightarrow y=6\). So \(B=(0,6)\).
