Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\pm \frac{3}{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, equation of lines \(x^2+2 h x y+2 y^2=0...(i)\) On comparing with \(a x^2+2 h x y+b y^2=0\) \(\Rightarrow \quad a=1\) and \(b=2\) Let \(y=m_1 x\) and \(y=m_2 x\) be the lines, whose combined form is Eq. (i)…
