The equation of normal of \(x^2+y^2-2 x+4 y-5=0\) at \((2,1)\) is

  1. A \(y=3 x-5\)
  2. B \(2 y=3 x-4\)
  3. C \(y=3 x+4\)
  4. D \(y=x+1\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(y=3 x-5\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Hints: \(0(1,-2) \mathrm{A}(2,1)\) Slope \(A \rightarrow \frac{y-1}{-2-1}=\frac{x-2}{1-2}, \quad \frac{y-1}{-3}=\frac{x-2}{-1}=1, y-1=3(x-2)\) \(y=3 x-5\)
