Solution
The correct options are By+7x=9 D7y−x=13 The lines 3x+4y=5 and 4x−3y=15 respectively. Hence the two given straight lines are at right angles.
So, according to the condition AB=AC there are 2 such lines are possible which make an angle of 45° with both lines Now slope of the line which makes an angle of 45° with 4x−3y+5=0is m=4/3±11∓4/3=−7,17 Hence the required equations are y−2=−7(x−1) and y−2=17(x−1) ⇒y+7x=9 and 7y−x=13
