Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\theta\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given \(\theta\) is the angle between the lines \(x^2+2 h x y+b y^2=0\) To find Angle between \(x^2+2 x y \sec \theta+y^2=0\) Since, we know that angle between the line \(a x^2+2 h x y+b y^2=0\) is \(\tan \theta=\left|\frac{2 \sqrt{h^2-a b}}{a+b}\right|\) Here, \(\quad a=1\)…
