For `a gt b gt c gt 0`, the distance between (1, 1) and the point of intersection of the lines ax+by+c =0 and bx+ay+c=0 is les than `2sqrt(2)`. Then

A

`a+b-c gt0`

B

`a-b+clt0`

C

`a-b+c gt 0`

D

`a+b-c lt 0`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

The lines `ax+by+c=0` and `bx+ay+c=0` intersect at `(-(c)/(a+b),(c)/(a+b))` . It is given that the distance between (1,1) and the point of intersection of the given lines is less than `2sqrt(2)`.
`therefore sqrt((1+(c)/(a+b))^(2)+(1+(c)/(a+b))^(2)) lt 2sqrt(2)`
`implies |(a+b+c)/(a+b)|sqrt(2) lt 2sqrt(2)`
`implies (a+b+c)/(a+b) lt 2" "[because a+b+c gt 0 and a+bgt 0]`
`implies a+b+c lt 2(a+b) implies a+b-c gt 0`
