Question
Question: The lines represented by the equation \(9x^{2} + 24xy + 16y^{2} + 21x + 28y + 6 = 0\) are...
The lines represented by the equation
9x2+24xy+16y2+21x+28y+6=0 are
A
Parallel
B
Coincident
C
Perpendicular
D
None of these
Answer
Parallel
Explanation
Solution
Given lines are not perpendicular i.e., a=−b
Checking for parallel lines, ha=bh=fg
(3x+4y+6)(3x+4y+1)=0⇒129=1612=2821
Hence lines are parallel.
