    Area of the parallelogram formed by the lines \[{{a}_{1}}x+{{b}_{1}}y+{{c}_{1}}=0\],\[{{a}_{1}}x+{{b}_{1}}y+{{d}_{1}}=0\]and \[{{a}_{2}}x+{{b}_{2}}y+{{c}_{2}}=0\], \[{{a}_{2}}x+{{b}_{2}}y+{{d}_{2}}=0\]is

    A)            \[\frac{({{d}_{1}}-{{c}_{1}})({{d}_{2}}-{{c}_{2}})}{{{[(a_{1}^{2}+b_{1}^{2})(a_{2}^{2}+b_{2}^{2})]}^{1/2}}}\]        

    B)            \[\frac{({{d}_{1}}-{{c}_{1}})({{d}_{2}}-{{c}_{2}})}{{{a}_{1}}{{a}_{2}}-{{b}_{1}}{{b}_{2}}}\]

    C)            \[\frac{({{d}_{1}}+{{c}_{1}})({{d}_{2}}+{{c}_{2}})}{{{a}_{1}}{{a}_{2}}+{{b}_{1}}{{b}_{2}}}\]      

    D)            \[\frac{({{d}_{1}}-{{c}_{1}})({{d}_{2}}-{{c}_{2}})}{{{a}_{1}}{{b}_{2}}-{{a}_{2}}{{b}_{1}}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

               Area \[=\frac{{{p}_{1}}{{p}_{2}}}{\sin \theta }={{p}_{1}}{{p}_{2}}\text{cosec}\theta \] ,                    where \[{{p}_{1}}=\frac{{{d}_{1}}-{{c}_{1}}}{\sqrt{(a_{1}^{2}+b_{1}^{2})}},{{p}_{2}}=\frac{{{d}_{2}}-{{c}_{2}}}{\sqrt{(a_{2}^{2}+b_{2}^{2})}}\]                    Also \[\tan \theta =\frac{{{a}_{1}}{{b}_{2}}-{{a}_{2}}{{b}_{1}}}{{{a}_{1}}{{a}_{2}}+{{b}_{1}}{{b}_{2}}}\]. Since \[\text{cose}{{\text{c}}^{2}}\theta =1+{{\cot }^{2}}\theta \]                    or \[\text{cose}{{\text{c}}^{2}}\theta =\frac{{{({{a}_{1}}{{a}_{2}}+{{b}_{1}}{{b}_{2}})}^{2}}+{{({{a}_{1}}{{b}_{2}}-{{a}_{2}}{{b}_{1}})}^{2}}}{{{({{a}_{1}}{{b}_{2}}-{{a}_{2}}{{b}_{1}})}^{2}}}\]                                      \[=\frac{(a_{1}^{2}+b_{1}^{2})(a_{2}^{2}+b_{2}^{2})}{{{({{a}_{1}}{{b}_{2}}-{{a}_{2}}{{b}_{1}})}^{2}}}\]                    Putting for \[{{p}_{1}},{{p}_{2}}\] and \[\text{cosec}\theta \], we get                    Area =\[\frac{({{d}_{1}}-{{c}_{1}})({{d}_{2}}-{{c}_{2}})}{{{a}_{1}}{{b}_{2}}-{{a}_{2}}{{b}_{1}}}\].
