प्रश्न
Slope of a line which cuts off intercepts of equal lengths on the axes is ______.
विकल्प
– 1
– 0
2
`sqrt(3)`
उत्तर
Slope of a line which cuts off intercepts of equal lengths on the axes is – 1.
Expllanation:
Intercept form of a line is `x/a + y/b` = 1
⇒ `x/a + y/a` = 1 .......(∵ a = b)
⇒ x + y = a
⇒ y = – x + a
∴ Slope is – 1
