Neco 2018 Mathematics Question 45 diagram

The diagram shows a circle centered at the origin with radius 5 and a line \( L \) that passes through point \( P(3,1) \) and meets the circle at points \( A \) and \( B \). The midpoint of chord \( AB \) is \( M(1,2) \). Using this information, determine the equation of line \( L \) and the coordinates of points \( A \) and \( B \).

Answer Options

Correct Answer A. Equation: y = -\frac{1}{2}x + \frac{5}{2}; A(5,0), B(-3,4)
B. Equation: y = -\\frac{1}{2}x - \\frac{5}{2}; A(5,0), B(-3,4)
