If the sum of the distances of a point from two perpendicular lines ina plane is 1, then its locus isa square(b) a circlea straight line (d) two intersecting linesA. a circleB. an ellipseC. a hyperbolaD. none of these

Answer» Let the mutually perpendicular lines be the co-ordinate axes and P(h,k) be a variable point . Then ,
`|h| + |k| = 1 " "` [Given]
`therefore` Locus of P (h,k) is |x| + |y| = 1
Clearly , it represents a square .
