Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\frac{1}{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Equation of line are \(x+y-1=0\) and \(x-y+1=0\) Solving equation we get, \((0,1)\) \(\therefore R(0,1)\) Perpendicular distance from \(P\) to line \(x+y-1=0\) and \(x-y+1=0\) are \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\) and \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\) respectively \(\therefore \quad P S=P Q\) and…
