Ques. 1JEE Main 2024, 4 April (Morning Shift)

The vertices of a triangle are A(-1, 3), B(-2, 2) and C(3,-1). A new triangle is formed by shifting the sides of the triangle by one unit inwards. Then the equation of the side of the new triangle nearest to origin is :

  1. -x+y-(2- 2)=0
  2. x+y-(2- 2)=0
  3. x+y+(2- 2)=0
  4. x-y-(2+ 2)=0

Answer

(2) x+y-(2- 2)=0

Solution

AB: x-y+4=0, AC: x+y-2=0

BC: 3x+5y-4=0

[figure]

Shift each side 1 unit towards the opposite vertex (inwards):

AB (towards C, where x-y+4>0): x-y+4= 2 distance from O = 4- 2 2 1.8

AC (towards B, where x+y-2<0): x+y-2=- 2 distance from O = 2- 2 2 0.41

BC (towards A, away from O): 3x+5y-4= 34 distance from O = 4+ 34 34 1.7

nearest side: x+y-(2- 2)=0

Answer: (2)
