JEE Main 2022 · 25 Jul · Shift 1, Mathematics question 12

A line, with the slope greater than one, passes through the point A(4,3)A(4,3) and intersects the line x−y−2=0x-y-2=0 at the point B. If the length of the line segment AB is 293\dfrac{\sqrt{29}}3, then B also lies on the line :

Choose one option
Answer and worked solution

Official answer: C

B =(t,t−2)=(t,t-2): (t−4)2+(t−5)2=299(t-4)^2+(t-5)^2=\frac{29}9 gives t=173t=\frac{17}3 or 103\frac{10}3; slope above 1 needs t=103t=\frac{10}3, B=(103,43)B=\left(\frac{10}3,\frac43\right).

Check. x+2y=6x+2y=6.
