Explanation

The bisectors of the lines f1(x,y) = 0 are given by f2(x,y) = 0. The bisectors of the bisectors f2(x,y) = 0 are the original lines f1(x,y) = 0 (or a rotated version). Iterating this process leads to the result.

B Correct answer
Explanation

Let the equation of lines passing through origin be $y-m _1x=0,y-m _2x=0$
$\therefore$The combined equation of pair of straight lines $=(y-m _1x)(y-m _2x)=0$

$\Rightarrow m _1m _2x^2-(m _1+m _2)xy+y^2=0$

But given sum of the slopes ,$m _1+m _2=\frac{(9+16)}{2}=\frac{25}{2}$
product of the slopes ,$m _1m _2=\sqrt(9*16)=12$
On subtituting these values in the above equation.
$\Rightarrow 12x^2-\displaystyle\frac{25}{2}xy+y^2=0$

$\Rightarrow 24x^2-25xy+2y^2=0$ comparing with general equation of pair of straight lines passing through origin $ax^2+2hxy+by^2=0$
$\Rightarrow a=224,h=\displaystyle\frac{-25}{2},b=2$
If $ax^2+2hxy+cy^2=0$ is pair of equation of line passing through origin then pair of equation of the angular bisector of these pair of lines is obtained by
 $h
(x^2-y^2)=(a-b)xy$

$\therefore$ The required pair of equation of angular bisector is $h(x^2-y^2)=(a-b)xy$
$\Rightarrow \displaystyle\frac{-25}{2}
(x^2-y^2)=(24-2)xy$
$\Rightarrow \displaystyle\frac{25}{2}*(x^2-y^2)=-22xy$

$\Rightarrow (25x^2-25y^2)=-44xy$

$\Rightarrow 25x^2+44xy-25y^2=0$

Equation of the bisectors of the angles between the given lines is

$\displaystyle \dfrac{x _2-y _2}{a-b}=\dfrac{xy}{h }$

Equation of the bisectors of the angles between the given lines is
$\displaystyle \frac{x^{2}-y^{2}}{\tan ^{2}\theta +\cos ^{2}\theta +\sin ^{2}\theta }=\frac{xy}{\tan \theta }$

$\displaystyle \Rightarrow \frac{x^{2}-y^{2}}{1+\tan ^{2}\theta  }=\frac{xy}{\tan \theta }$

$\displaystyle \Rightarrow \frac{x^{2}-y^{2}}{1+3  }=\frac{xy}{\sqrt 3 } \ when \ \ \theta=\pi/3$

Which satisfied by $y=mx $ if

$\displaystyle \frac{1-m^{2}}{4}=\frac{m}{\sqrt 3}$

$\displaystyle \Rightarrow \sqrt 3 m^{2}+4m-\sqrt 3=0$

$\displaystyle \Rightarrow m=\frac{-2\pm \sqrt 7}{\sqrt 3}$

D Correct answer
Explanation

Since the product of the slopes of the four lines represented by the given equation is $1$ and a pair of lines represent the bisectors of the angles between the other two, the product of the slopes of each pair is $-1$. So let the equation of one pair be $ax^{2} + 2hxy -ay^{2} = 0$

The equation of its bisectors is $ \displaystyle \frac{x^{2}-y^{2}}{2a}=\frac{xy}{h} $

By hypothesis $ x^{4} +x^{3}y + cx^{2} y^{2}-xy^{3} + y^{4} $ $= (ax^{2} + 2hxy -ay^{2}) (hx^{2} -2axy -hy^{2})$ 

$ = ah(x^{4} + y^{4}) + 2(h^{2} -a^{ 2}) (x^{3}y- xy^{3}) -6ahx^{2}y^{2} $ 

Comparing the respective coefficients we get

$ah = 1 $ and $c = -6ah = -6$

Explanation

Pair of angle bisectors represented by
$ax^2+2hxy+by^2=0$   is given by
$\dfrac{x^2-y^2}{a-b}=\dfrac{xy}{h}$
$\therefore ax^2+2axy+y^2=0$
pair of angle bisector is,
$\dfrac{x^2-y^2}{a-1}=\dfrac{xy}{a}$
$ax^2-ay^2=(a-1)xy$

$m=3$ is satisfied to this equation
$9a+3a-3-a=0$
$11a=3$

${ x }^{ 2 }+{ 4y }^{ 2 }=32\quad \longrightarrow \left( i \right) $
${ x }^{ 2 }-{ y }^{ 2 }=12\quad \longrightarrow \left( ii \right) $
Solving, $y=\pm 2$

Explanation

Let us consider the problem:

$\left( {\left( {\cos \theta  + \sin \theta } \right)x + \cos \theta  - \sin \theta } \right)y - 3\left( {3\cos \theta  + \sin \theta } \right) = 0$
$ \Rightarrow \cos \theta \left( {x + y - 9} \right) + \sin \theta \left( {x - y - 3} \right) = 0$
$ \Rightarrow $ $\left( {x + y - 9} \right) + \tan \theta \left( {x - y - 3} \right) = 0$
${L _1} + K{L _2} = 0$(pass through intersection of ${L _1}$ and ${L _2}$ for all value of $K$)
$x+y-9=0$
$ \Rightarrow $ $x - y - 3 = 0$ 
Hence,
$x+y=9$
$x-y=3$
hence the intersection point is $(6,3)$

  1. $hx^2 + (a - b)x - h = 0$
  2. $x^2 +h(a - b)x - 1 = 0$
  3. $(a - b)x^2 + hx - (a - b) = 0$
  4. $(a - b)x^2 - hx - (a - b) = 0$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Equation of bisectors of the pair of straight lines $ax^2+2hxy+by^2=0$ is

$h(x^2-y^2)-(a-b)xy=0$......(1).

Since $y=mx $ is given to be the bisector of the pair of straight lines, then the line will satisfy the equation (1).

Then we get,
$h(1-m^2)-(a-b)m=0$

$hm^2+(a-b)m-h=0$.

So $m$ satisfies the equation $hx^2+(a-b)x-h=0$.
