The equation of a line parallel to 2x – 3y = 4 which makes with the axes a triangle of area 12 units, is-
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
Any line parallel to 2x – 3y = 4 is 2x – 3y + λ = 0
A ≡ 
, B ≡ 
area of Δ AOB = 
= 12
λ 2 = 144 ⇒ λ = 12, – 12
line is 2x – 3y + 12 = 0 and 2x – 3y – 12 = 0
