Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\pi / 2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given the line joining the points \((1,-2)(3,2)\) and \(x+2 y-7=0\). Slope of the lines are \(m_1=\frac{2+2}{3-1}=2 \quad\) and \(\quad m_2=-\frac{1}{2}\) Now, \(m_1 \times m_2=2 \times \frac{-1}{2}=-1\) \(\therefore\) Lines are perpendicular, so angle is \(\frac{\pi}{2}\).
