AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to find the direction in which a straight line must be drawn through the point (1, 2) such that its intersection with the line \(x + y = 4\) is at a distance of 3 units from the point (1, 2). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the intersection point**: Let the point of intersection be \((x_1, y_1)\). Since this point lies on the line \(x + y = 4\), we have: \[ x_1 + y_1 = 4 \] ...
