Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(x-\sqrt{3} y=0\) and \(3 x+\sqrt{3} y=0\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(3 x^{2}-2 \sqrt{3} x y-3 y^{2}=0\)
\(3 x^{2}-3 \sqrt{3} x y+\sqrt{3} x y-3 y^{2}=0 \Rightarrow 3 x(x-\sqrt{3} y)\)\(+\sqrt{3} y(x-\sqrt{3} y)=0\)
\((3 x+\sqrt{3} y)(x-\sqrt{3} y)=0 \Rightarrow 3 x+\sqrt{3} y=0, \quad x\)\(-\sqrt{3} y=0\)
