If the chord y = mx + 1 of circle x2+y2=1x^{2} + y^{2} = 1 subtends an
angle of measure 45º at the major segment of the circle, then the value

of m is

ij

45º dks.k cukrh

Show answer and solution
CM=12CM = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}
11+m2=12⇒m=±1\frac{1}{\sqrt{1 + m^{2}}} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \Rightarrow m = \pm 1
