P lies on the line 8y –15x = 0 and Q lies on the line
10y –3x = 0 and the mid-point of PQ is (8, 6). The distance PQ is-
A
B
C
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
The line through (8, 6) and parallel to OQ is
10y = 3x + 36 and thus meets OP at 
. But this is mid-point of OP. So P is
