Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) harmonic progression

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let these three lines be \(L_1, L_2\) and \(L_3\) \(\begin{aligned} & L_1=x+2 a y+a=0 \\ & L_2=x+3 b y+b=0 \\ & L_3=x+2 c y+c=0 \end{aligned}\) If \(L_1, L_2\) and \(L_3\) are concurrent, then…
