JEE MAIN - Mathematics (2021 - 26th February Morning Shift - No. 8)

The intersection of three lines x $$-$$ y = 0, x + 2y = 3 and 2x + y = 6 is a :
Right angled triangle
Equilateral triangle
None of the above
Isosceles triangle

Explanation

The given three lines are x $$-$$ y = 0, x + 2y = 3 and 2x + y = 6 then point of intersection,

lines x $$-$$ y = 0 and x + 2y = 3 is (1, 1)

lines x $$-$$ y = 0 and 2x + y = 6 is (2, 2)

and lines x + 2y = 3 and 2x + y = 0 is (3, 0)

The triangle ABC has vertices A(1, 1), B(2, 2) and C(3, 0)

$$ \therefore $$ AB = $$\sqrt 2 $$, BC = $$\sqrt 5 $$ and AC = $$\sqrt 5 $$

$$ \therefore $$ $$\Delta$$ABC is isosceles
