Choose the correct answer:
- A.
1/5
(Correct Answer) - B.
2/5
- C.
5
- D.
10
1/5
Explanation
A parallelogram formed by two pairs of parallel lines of the form:
a1x+b1y+c1=0
a1x+b1y+c2=0
a2x+b2y+d1=0
a2x+b2y+d2=0
The area is given by the formula:
Area=∣a1b2−a2b1∣∣(c1−c2)(d1−d2)∣
1. Rewrite the given equations in standard form (ax+by+c=0):
Line 1: 4x−y=0
Line 2: 4x−y+1=0
Line 3: x+y=0
Line 4: x+y−1=0
Here, the coefficients are:
Pair 1: a1=4,b1=−1,c1=0,c2=1
Pair 2: a2=1,b2=1,d1=0,d2=−1
2. Apply the Area Formula:
Area=∣(4)(1)−(1)(−1)∣∣(0−1)(0−(−1))∣
Area=∣4+1∣∣(−1)(1)∣
Area=∣5∣∣−1∣
Area=51
Correct Option: A) 1/5
