Area of the triangle formed by the graph of the straight lines x - y = 0, x + y = 2 and x-axis is
-
1 sq unit
-
2 sq units
-
1 sq units
-
None of these
A.
1 sq unit
On putting x = 0 in
x + y = 2,
0 + y = 2 ⟹ y = 2
∴ Point of intersection on y-axis (0, 2)
Again, putting y = 0 in x + y = 2, ⟹ x = 2
∴ Point of intersection on x-axis = (2, 0)
x - y = 0 will pass through origin and be equally inclined to axes.
On putting x = y in x + y = 2,
2y = 2 ⟹ y = 1
∴ CD = 1
OA = 2
Area of ΔOAC =
