Question
Given the family of lines, a(3x + 4y + 6) + b(x + y + 2) = 0. The line of the family situated at the greatest distance from the point P (2, 3) has equation -
Options
A.4x + 3y + 8 = 0
B.5x + 3y + 10 = 0
C.5x + 3y + 10 = 0
D.none
Solution

L1 : 3x + 4y + 6 = 0
L : x + y + 2 = 0
Line situated at greatest distance from P(2, 3) is the line passing through point of intersection (Q) of the given lines and perpendicular to PQ.
