The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of finding all points on the line \( x + y = 4 \) that lie at a unit distance from the line \( 4x + 3y = 10 \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Define the Point on the Line Let the point on the line \( x + y = 4 \) be represented as \( (h, k) \). Since this point lies on the line, we have: \[ h + k = 4 \quad \text{(Equation 1)} \] ### Step 2: Use the Distance Formula The distance \( d \) from a point \( (h, k) \) to the line \( Ax + By + C = 0 \) can be calculated using the formula: \[ d = \frac{|Ax_1 + By_1 + C|}{\sqrt{A^2 + B^2}} \] For the line \( 4x + 3y - 10 = 0 \), we have \( A = 4 \), \( B = 3 \), and \( C = -10 \). The distance from the point \( (h, k) \) to this line is given by: \[ d = \frac{|4h + 3k - 10|}{\sqrt{4^2 + 3^2}} = \frac{|4h + 3k - 10|}{5} \] Since we want this distance to be equal to 1 (unit distance), we set up the equation: \[ \frac{|4h + 3k - 10|}{5} = 1 \] Multiplying both sides by 5 gives: \[ |4h + 3k - 10| = 5 \quad \text{(Equation 2)} \] ### Step 3: Solve the Absolute Value Equation The absolute value equation \( |4h + 3k - 10| = 5 \) leads to two cases: 1. \( 4h + 3k - 10 = 5 \) 2. \( 4h + 3k - 10 = -5 \) #### Case 1: \( 4h + 3k - 10 = 5 \) Rearranging gives: \[ 4h + 3k = 15 \quad \text{(Equation 3)} \] #### Case 2: \( 4h + 3k - 10 = -5 \) Rearranging gives: \[ 4h + 3k = 5 \quad \text{(Equation 4)} \] ### Step 4: Solve the System of Equations Now we will solve the pairs of equations formed by Equation 1 with Equations 3 and 4. #### Solving Equation 1 and Equation 3 From Equation 1: \[ k = 4 - h \] Substituting into Equation 3: \[ 4h + 3(4 - h) = 15 \] Expanding and simplifying: \[ 4h + 12 - 3h = 15 \\ h + 12 = 15 \\ h = 3 \] Substituting back to find \( k \): \[ k = 4 - 3 = 1 \] Thus, one point is \( (3, 1) \). #### Solving Equation 1 and Equation 4 Using Equation 1 again: \[ k = 4 - h \] Substituting into Equation 4: \[ 4h + 3(4 - h) = 5 \] Expanding and simplifying: \[ 4h + 12 - 3h = 5 \\ h + 12 = 5 \\ h = -7 \] Substituting back to find \( k \): \[ k = 4 - (-7) = 11 \] Thus, the second point is \( (-7, 11) \). ### Final Answer The points on the line \( x + y = 4 \) that lie at a unit distance from the line \( 4x + 3y = 10 \) are: \[ (3, 1) \quad \text{and} \quad (-7, 11) \]
