A) \[\frac{15}{8}\]
B) \[\frac{25}{4}\]
C) \[\frac{25}{8}\]
D) \[\frac{25}{16}\]
Correct Answer: D
Solution :
Idea Equation of line passing through two given points \[(x,y)\] and \[(x2,{{y}_{2}})\]is\[y-{{y}_{1}}=\frac{{{y}_{2}}-{{x}_{1}}}{{{y}_{2}}-{{y}_{1}}}(x-{{x}_{1}})\]Use this formula and find intersection point between two lines. To solve this question, we have to come the above method. Line L which passes through (1, 1) and (2, 0) is \[(y-1)=\frac{-1}{1}(x-1)\] \[y-1=-x+1\] \[x+y=2\] ..(i) Line L? is \[(y-0)=1\left( x-\frac{1}{2} \right)\] \[2y=2x-1\] \[2y-2y=1\] ?(ii) On solving Eqs. (i) and (ii), \[x=\frac{5}{4},y=\frac{3}{4}\] Required area is \[=\frac{1}{2}.\] base x height \[=\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{5}{2}\times \frac{5}{4}=\frac{25}{16}\] TEST Edge The area of triangle between two curves' related questions are asked from this concept.
