If one of the lines given by \(k x^{2}+x y-y^{2}=0\) bisects the angle between the co-ordinate axes, then values of \(k\) are

  1. A 1,2
  2. B 1,3
  3. C 0,2
  4. D \(-2,2\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 0,2

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given equation of lines is \(k x^{2}+x y-y^{2}=0\)
\(\therefore \quad(-1) \mathrm{m}^{2}+\mathrm{m}+\mathrm{k}=0\) is auxillary equation
Since one line is angle bisector of coordinate axes, we write \(m=\pm 1\).
When \(m=1\), from auxillary equation, we get \(k=0\).
When \(m=-1\), from auxillary equation, we get \(k=2 .\)
