\end{aligned} \text { equation }
\]
represents a pair of straight lines, then the square of the distance of their point of intersection from the origin is

  1. A \(\frac{c(a+b)-a f^2-b g^2}{a b-h^2}\)
  2. B \(\frac{c(a+b)+f^2+g^2}{a b-h^2}\)
  3. C \(\frac{c(a+b)-f^2-g^2}{a b-h^2}\)
  4. D \(\frac{c(a+b)-f^2-g^2}{\left(a b-h^2\right)^2}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\frac{c(a+b)-f^2-g^2}{a b-h^2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

We know that the point of intersection of the pair of straight line is \[ \left(\sqrt{\frac{f^2-b c}{h^2-a b}}, \sqrt{\frac{g^2-a c}{h^2-a b}}\right) \] Required distance…
