  1. A two parallel lines
  2. B two perpendicular lines
  3. C two lines through the origin
  4. D a circle
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) two lines through the origin

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(11y^2 - 24xy + 4x^2 = 0\) \(11y^2 - 22xy - 2xy + 4x^2 = 0\) \(11y(y - 2x) - 2x(y - 2x) = 0\) \((11y - 2x)(y - 2x) = 0\) The lines are \(11y = 2x\) and \(y = 2x\). These are two lines through the origin.
