Solution:
\(\Rightarrow\) Two-point form of line joining two points \( (x_1, y_1) \) and \( (x_2, y_2) \) is given by:
\(\frac{y−y_1}{y2−y1} = \frac{x−x1}{x2−x1}\)
By placing given two points \((1, \: -1)\) and \((-1, \: 1)\), above equation can be written as:
\(\implies\) \( \frac{y−(-1)}{1−(-1)} = \frac{x−1}{(-1)−1}\)
\(\implies\) \( \frac{y+1}{2} = \frac{x−1}{-2}\)
\(\implies\) \( -2y-2 = 2x−2\)
\(\implies\) \( 2x+2y=0\)
\(\implies\) \(x+y=0\)
