The lines (a x^2+2 h x y+b y^2=0 ) are at right angles if
Options
- A(a+b=0 )
- B(a+b=1 )
- C(h^2-a b=0 )
- D(a=b )
Correct answer
A. (a+b=0 )
Step-by-step solution
The acute angle (( ) ) between lines represented by equation (a x^2+2 h x y+b y^2=0 ), is ( = ⁻¹ ( 2 h^2-a b |a+b| ) ) If lines are perpendicular then (a+b=0 ).
