💥 Q 63 Prep 3 Geometry Question Bank T1

Find the equation of the straight line:

a) Passing through the point \( (3, -5) \) and parallel to the line \( x + 2y - 7 = 0 \)

(a) \( x + 2y + 7 = 0 \)

(b) \( 2x - y - 11 = 0 \)

(c) \( x + 2y - 7 = 0 \)

(d) \( x - 2y - 13 = 0 \)

b) Passing through the point \( (-2, 3) \) and perpendicular to the line \( y = \frac{1}{2}x - 5 \)

(a) \( y = \frac{1}{2}x + 4 \)

(b) \( y = -2x - 1 \)

(c) \( y = 2x + 7 \)

(d) \( y = -\frac{1}{2}x + 2 \)

Correct Answers:
a) (a) \( x + 2y + 7 = 0 \)
b) (b) \( y = -2x - 1 \)
