Q74 / 125 · BITSAT 2009 · Mathematics
Area of the triangle formed by the line \(x+y=3\) and angle bisectors of the pair of straight lines \(x^2-y^2+2 y=1\) is
- Correct answerA2 sq. units
- B4 sq. units
- C6 sq. units
- D8 sq. units
Solution
\(\mathrm{x}^2-\mathrm{y}^2+2 \mathrm{y}=1 \Rightarrow \mathrm{x}= \pm(\mathrm{y}-1)\)
Bisectors of above line are \(x=0 ~\&~ y=1\)

So area between \(x=0, y=1 ~\&~ x+y=3\) is shaded Region shown in figure.
Area \(=1 / 2 \times 2 \times 2=2\) sq. units

So area between \(x=0, y=1 ~\&~ x+y=3\) is shaded Region shown in figure.

Area \(=1 / 2 \times 2 \times 2=2\) sq. units
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
