One vertex of the equalateral triangle with centroid at the origin and one side as x+y−2 = 0 is (a) (−1,−1) (b) (2,2) (c) (−2,−2) (d) (2,−2)

distance from origin to given line: ((∣0×1+0×1−2∣)/( (√(1^2 +1^2 ))))=(√2) perpendicular line through origin: y=x the vertex must lie on this line, therefore (a),(b),(c) are possible. distance from vertex to the origin is 2 times of the distance from origin to the given line, i.e. 2(√2), therefore (b) and (c) are possible. distance from vertex to given line is 3 times of that from origin, i.e. 3(√2), (b): ((∣2×1+2×1−2∣)/( (√(1^2 +1^2 ))))=(√2)≠3(√2) (c): ((∣−2×1−2×1−2∣)/( (√(1^2 +1^2 ))))=3(√2) ⇒only (c) is correct.
