If the coordinates of A and B be (1, 1) and (5, 7), then the equation of the perpendicular bisector of the line segment AB is-

A

2x + 3y = 18

B

2x –3y + 18 = 0

C

2x + 3y –1 = 0

D

3x –2y + 1 = 0

Answer

2x + 3y = 18

Explanation

Solution

Slope of AB = 32\frac { 3 } { 2 }

\ slope of line perpendicular to AB m = – 23\frac { 2 } { 3 }

\ equation y – 4 = 23\frac { - 2 } { 3 } (x –3)

2x + 3y = 18
