9.Straight Line
medium
The sides $AB,BC,CD$ and $DA$ of a quadrilateral are $x + 2y = 3,\,x = 1,$ $x - 3y = 4,\,$ $\,5x + y + 12 = 0$ respectively. The angle between diagonals $AC$ and $BD$ is ......$^o$
A
${45}$
B
${60}$
C
${90}$
D
${30}$
Solution
(c) The four vertices on solving are $A( – 3,\,3)$, $B(1,\,1),$ $C(1,\, – 1)$ and $D( – 2, – 2)$.${m_1}$= slope of $AC = – 1$, ${m_2}$= slope of $BD = 1$; ${m_1}{m_2} = – 1$.
Hence the angle between diagonals $AC$ and $BD$ is $90^\circ $.
