Find the equation of a line which is equidistant from the lines `x=4` `a n d` `x` `=8.`

A

x=2

B

x=6

C

y=2

D

y=6

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
The given lines are both parallel ot y-axis and the required line is equidistant from these lines. So, it is also parallel ot y-axis at a distance of `(1)/(2)(-4+8)=2` units from it
Hence , its equation is x=2.
