If the point `(a ,a)` is placed in between the lines `|x+y|=4,` then find the values of `adot`

A

`|alpha|=4`

B

`|alpha|=2`

C

`|alpha| lt 2`

D

`|alpha| lt 4`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
The equations of the lines are `x+y=4` and `x+y=-4` . If `(alpha, alpha)` lies between these lines, then
`(alpha + alpha -4)(alpha + alpha+4) lt 0`
`implies (2alpha-4)(2alpha+4) lt 0 implies (alpha-2) (alpha+2) lt 0 implies |alpha| lt 2`
