The line through that point and the origin has a slope of -1. It is perpendicular to the line you want, so the line you want has slope +1. Its equation can be written as
.. y = (x -4) -4
or, in standard form
.. x - y = 8
.. y = (x -4) -4
or, in standard form
.. x - y = 8
The answer would be the first choice.
Explanation: The reason for this is that the question was pretty much just asking what the area of the resulting two-dimensional cross section would be -the shape in gray- (which can be found by using the formula . To add on, since the dimensions of the shape are already given (5 and 3) all you've to do is multiply: 3*5=15
That's how you get to the answer.
