The locus of a point which moves such that the sum of its distances from two perpendicular lines is equal to is a
- A Square
- B Circle
- C Straight line
- D set of four parallel lines
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) Square
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Point P moves such that the sum of its distances from two perpendicular lines is equal to one. Let the perpendicular lines are x-axis and y-axis. L1:x=0, L2:y=0 and Px,y then the sum of distances of point P from L1 & L2 =x+y=1 So, four equations of lines are…
