Let \(A=(2,0)\) and \(B=(0,-2)\). Let \(P\) be any point such that the sum of the distances of \(P\) from \(A\) and \(B\) is 4 . Then the equation of the locus of the point \(P\) is

  1. A \(3 x^2-2 x y+3 y^2-4 x+12 y+16=0\)
  2. B \(3 x^2-2 x y+3 y^2-8 x+8 y=0\)
  3. C \(3 x^2+2 x y+3 y^2+8 x-8 y=0\)
  4. D \(3 x^2+2 x y+3 y^2+4 x-12 y+16=0\)

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(3 x^2-2 x y+3 y^2-8 x+8 y=0\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let \(P(x, y)\) be the point. Hence \(P A+P B=4\)…
