JEE Main2013MathematicsStraight LinesActual
Let ₁ be the angle between two lines 2 x+3 y+c₁=0 and -x+5 y+c₂=0 and ₂ be the angle between two lines 2 x+3 y+c₁=0 and -x+5 y+c₃=0 , where c₁, c₂, c₃ are any real numbers : Statement-1: If c₂ and c₃ are proportional, then ₁= ₂ . Statement-2: ₁= ₂ for all c₂ and c₃ .
Options
- AStatement-1 is true, Statement-2 is true; Statement-2 is a correct explanation of Statement-1.
- BStatement-1 is true, Statement-2 is true; Statement-2 is not a correct explanation of Statement-1.
- CStatement-1 is false; Statement- 2 is true.
- DStatement-1 is true; Statement- 2 is false.
Correct answer
A. Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is true; Statement-2 is a correct explanation of Statement-1.
Step-by-step solution
Two lines -x+5 y+c₂=0 and -x+5 y+c₃=0 are parallel to each other. Hence statement-1 is true, statement-2 is true and statement-2 is the correct explanation of statement-1.
