JEE Main & Advanced Mathematics Pair of Straight Lines Question Bank Angle between the pair of straight lines, Condition for parallel and perpendicular lines

  • question_answer
    The lines represented by the equation \[9{{x}^{2}}+24xy+16{{y}^{2}}+21x+28y+6=0\] are

    A)            Parallel                                   

    B)            Coincident

    C)            Perpendicular                      

    D)            None of these

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

               Given lines are not perpendicular i.e., \[a\ne -b\]            Checking for parallel lines, \[\frac{a}{h}=\frac{h}{b}=\frac{g}{f}\]            \[(3x+4y+6)(3x+4y+1)=0\Rightarrow \frac{9}{12}=\frac{12}{16}=\frac{21}{28}\]            Hence lines are parallel.
