The auxiliary equation of the lines passing through the origin and having slopes 3 +1 and 3 -1 is
Options
- Am²-2 3 m+2=0
- Bm²-2 3 m-2=0
- Cm²+2 3 m-2=0
- Dm²+2 3 m+2=0
Correct answer
A. m²-2 3 m+2=0
Step-by-step solution
Equations of required lines are y=( 3 +1) x and y=( 3 -1) x their joint equation is [( 3 +1) x-y][( 3 -1) x-y]=0 2 x²-2 3 x y+y²=0 Dividing both sides by x² , we get aligned ( y x )²-2 3 y x +2 &=0 m²-2 3 m+2 &=0 aligned
