Correct option is C)
For point Cv1−−451=201orv=36cm Using M=OI=uv.yc′=45−36×15=−12. Thus co-ordinates of C′ are (36.-12) For point Bu=45+8cos45=45+5.656v1=201−50.661orv=30.6650.66×20=33cm,yB′=50.66−33×(15−42) Thus coordinates of B′ are (33,-6.1) For point Au=45−42=39.34cmv1=201−39.341orv=19.3439.34×20=40.70cm,yA′=39.34−40.7×(15−42)=21.4cm Thus coordinates of A′ are (40.7,-21.4) Length of image A′B′=(40.7−33)2+(21.4−6.1)2=7.72+15.32=17.1cm.
