Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(4\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Slope of directrix \(=-1\); Slope of axis \(=1\) Vertex is \((1,1)\). Equation of axis is \(y-1=1(x-1) \Rightarrow y=x\) ...(i) Directrix is \(x+y+1=0\) ...(ii) Solving (i) and (ii), \(x=\frac{-1}{2}, y=\frac{-1}{2} \Rightarrow c=\frac{-1}{2}, d=\frac{-1}{2}\) \((1,1)\) is the…
