Q74
P(4, 2) and R(-2, 0) are vertices of a rhombus PQRS. What is the equation of diagonal QS?
A.
x - 3y = -2
B.
3x + y = 4
AnswerC.
3x + y = -4
D.
x - 3y = 2
Answer: Option B
Solution
Answer: Option B
Solution:

Slope of line PR
∴ Slope of line QS = -3 = m2 {As it is perpendicular to PR}
Coordinates of point O
∴ Equation of line QS which passes through point O(1, 1)
⇒ y - 1 = m2(x - 1)
⇒ y - 1 = -3(x - 1)
⇒ y - 1 = -3x + 3
⇒ 3x + y = 4
