Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\frac{-1}{64}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

We have, equations of pair of straight lines Now, equations of bisectors of these line are \[ -8 p x^2-2 x y+8 p y^2=0 \] and \(-8 q x^2-2 x y+8 q y^2=0\) According to the given condition in the data, Eqs. (i) and (iv), and Eqs. (ii) and (iii) must be coincident. So,…
