Question: A line passes through the point (3, 5) and makes an angle of $ 135{}^\circ $ with the X-axis. The equation of the line is
Options:
A) $ x+y-8=0 $
B) $ x-y+8=0 $
C) $ x-y+8=0 $
D) $ x+y+8=0 $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
- The equation of the line is
$ \frac{y-5}{x-3}=\tan 135{}^\circ =\tan (180{}^\circ -45{}^\circ ) $
$ =-\tan 45{}^\circ =-1{}^\circ $
$ \Rightarrow $ $ y-5=-x+3 $
$ \therefore $ Equation of line is $ x+y-8=0. $
