34. Find the equation of the straight line which .
passes through the point (3,1) and makes
intercepts on the axes the difference of
whose length is 4.

The equation of the straight line passing through the point ( 3,1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

The equation of the straight line passing through the point ( 3,1 )

                    3b + a = ab ...(i)

Given the difference of length is  4

                      a-b = 4

                       b =  a - 4 ...(ii)

Step(ii):-

substitute b=a-4 in equation (i) , we get

                3( a-4 ) + a = a (a-4)

               3a - 12+ a =  - 4 a + a²  

                 a² - 8 a + 12 =0

Find the factors of 'a'

                 a² - 6a -2a +12 =0

                a (a-6) -2(a-6) =0

             a =2 and a=6

                  we know that a-b =4

             put       a = 2

                          2 - b =4

                            b = -2

The equation of the straight line whose intercepts on the axes

The equation of the straight line

Verification:-

The equation of the straight line passing through the point (3,1)

Put x =3 and y=1

                 1 = 1

∴  The point (3,1) is satisfies the equation

last option

step-by-step explanation:

given that δdef is right and isoceles,

assuming that side df is the hypotenuse means that de an ef are the other 2 sides that intersect at 90° and are of equal length.

because they are of equal length, we can say that they are congruent

because they intersect at 90°, their slopes must be opposite reciprocals.

only the last option satisfies these conditions.
