The line MN whose equation is \(x-y-2=0\) cuts the X-axis at M and co-ordinates of N are \((4,2)\). The line MN is rotated about M through \(45^{\circ}\) in anticlockwise direction. The equation of the line MN in the new position is

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

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(x=2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

M is on X-axis: \(y=0 \Rightarrow x-0-2=0 \Rightarrow M=(2,0)\). Slope of MN: \(y=x-2 \Rightarrow m_{MN}=1\).
