The line AB cuts off equal intercepts 2a from the axes. From any point P on the line AB perpendiculars PR and PS are drawn on the axes. Locus of mid-point of RS is

  • x - y = a2

  • x + y = a

  • x2 + y2 = 4a2

  • x2 - y2 = 2a2


B.

x + y = a

Let the equation of line AB is

x2a + y2a = 1

 x + y = 2a     ...(i)

Let the coordinates of the mid-point of RS be (h, k).

So, R and S are (2h, 0) and (0, 2k)

Hence, the mid-point of RS is (h, k).

Thus, P lies on line AB,

Then, from Eq. (i), we have

2h + 2k = 2a

 h + k = a

So, the locus of (h, k) is x + y = a
