Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\frac{1}{12}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\begin{aligned} \text { Given, } & & x^2-2 x y-x y+2 y^2 & =0 \\ \Rightarrow & & (x-2 y)(x-y) & =0\end{aligned}\) On solving Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get \(A\left(-\frac{2}{3},-\frac{1}{3}\right), B\left(-\frac{1}{2},-\frac{1}{2}\right), C(0,0)\) \(\therefore\) Area of…
