Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) Equilateral Triangle

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Slopes from \(x^2+4xy+y^2=0\): Let \(m=\frac{y}{x}\). \(m^2+4m+1=0 \implies m_{1,2} = \frac{-4 \pm \sqrt{16-4}}{2} = -2 \pm \sqrt{3}\). Slope from \(x-y=4\): \(y=x-4 \implies m_3 = 1\). Angle between lines with slopes \(m_1\) and \(m_2\):…
