The line through the points (4, 3) and (2, 5) cuts off intercepts of length `lambda` and `mu` on the axes. Which one of the following is correct ?A. `lambda gt mu`B. `lambda lt mu`C. `lambda gt - mu`D. `lambda = mu`

Answer» Correct Answer - D
Let the equation of line be
`x/lambda+y/mu=1`
The line passes through (4, 2) and (2, 5).
`:. 4/lambda +3/mu=1`, is possible when `lambda=mu=7`
and `2/lambda+3/mu=1`, is possible when `lambda=mu=5`
So, `mu=lambda`
