Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) exactly one value of \(p\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

For 1st line \(m_1=p\left(p^2+1\right)\) for \(2 \mathrm{nd}\) line \(\mathrm{m}_2=-\left(\mathrm{p}^2+1\right)\) Since, if these two line are perpendicular to the line \(\mathrm{L}\) then…
