9.Straight Line
easy
The opposite vertices of a square are $(1, 2)$ and $(3, 8)$, then the equation of a diagonal of the square passing through the point $(1, 2)$, is
A
$3x - y - 1 = 0$
B
$3y - x - 1 = 0$
C
$3x + y + 1 = 0$
D
None of these
Solution
(a) Slope $ = \frac{{8 – 2}}{{3 – 1}} = 3$.
The diagonal is$y – 2 = 3(x – 1)$
$\Rightarrow 3x – y – 1 = 0$.
