The line `P Q` whose equation is `x-y=2` cuts the x-axis at `P ,a n dQ` is (4,2). The line `P Q` is rotated about `P` through `45^0` in the anticlockwise direction. The equation of the line `P Q` in the new position is `y=-sqrt(2)` (b) `y=2` `x=2` (d) `x=-2`

A

`y=-sqrt(2)`

B

y=2

C

x=2

D

x=-2

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
