Let the triangle PQR be the image of the triangle with vertices (1, 3), (3, 1) and (2, 4) inthe line x + 2y = 2. If the centroid of DPQR is the point (α, β), then 15(α – β) is equal to:
Choose the correct answer:
A.
24
B.
19
C.
21
D.
22
(Correct Answer)
Correct Answer:
22
Explanation
∴△PQR is image of △ABC with respect to line x+2y=2
Centroid of △ABC
G=(2,38)
∴ Centroid of △PQR is G′(α,β)
That is image of G w.r.t. x+2y−2=0
Using image formula,
1α−2=2β−38<br>=−2(1+42+316−2)
1α−2=2β−38<br>=−1532
α−2=−1532
α=2−1532=−152
β−38=−1564
β=38−1564=−1524
∴15(α−β)=22
