The equation of a line with slope \(-\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\) and makes an intercept of \(2 \sqrt{2}\) units on negative direction of \(y\)-axis is

  1. A \(\sqrt{2} y-x+4=0\)
  2. B \(x+\sqrt{2} y+2 \sqrt{2}=0\)
  3. C \(\sqrt{2} y+x+4=0\)
  4. D \(x+\sqrt{2} y-2 \sqrt{2}=0\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\sqrt{2} y+x+4=0\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The line passes through point \((0,-2 \sqrt{2})\) and has slope \(=\frac{-1}{\sqrt{2}}\) Hence equation of line is
\((\mathrm{y}+2 \sqrt{2})=\frac{-1}{\sqrt{2}}(\mathrm{x}-0) \Rightarrow \mathrm{x}+\sqrt{2} \mathrm{y}+4=0\)
