(A) 1/sqrt (2)
(B) 1
(C) sqrt (2)
(D) sqrt (3)
(E) 2*sqrt (3)
Answer : C
Midpoint of the diagonal = (3,4)
Slope of the diagonal = -2/3
Slope of the other diagonal is the negative reciprocal of the first diagonal = 3/2
Let one of the vertices = (a,b).
The midpoint (diagonal) and the slope (diagonal) gives us the 1st equation = (y-4)/(x-3) = 3/2
The length of the diagonal = 2*sqrt13.
Calculate the length of the diagonal from the midpoint to the vertex (1/2 of diagonal) .
This gives us our 2nd equation = (x-3)^2 + (y-4)^2 = 13
Solving both the equations :
(x,y) = (1,1)
Thus, the distance is sqrt 2
