60°

Question 2.
State with reasons which of the following are true or false :
(a) The equation x = k represents a line parallel to x – axis for all real values of k.
Solution:
False. As the line x = k is parallel to y- axis for all values of k.

(b) The line, y + x + 1 = 0 makes an angle 45° with y – axis.
Solution:
y + x + 1 = 0
∴ Its slope = -1 = tan 135°
∴ It makes 45° with y – axis, as it makes 135° with x – axis. (True)

(c) The lines represented by 2x – 3y + 1 = 0 and 3x + 2y – k = 0 are perpendicular to each other for positive values of k only.
Solution:
2x – 3y + 1 = 0, 3x + 2y – k = 0
∴ \(m_1 m_2=\frac{2}{3} \times \frac{(-3)}{2}=-1\)
∴ The lines are perpendicular to each other for + ve values of k only. (False)

(d) The lines represented by px + 2y – 1 = 0 and 3x + py + 1 = 0 are not coincident for any value of ‘p’.
Solution:
px + 2y – 1 = 0, 3x + py + 1=0
∴ \(\frac{p}{3}=\frac{2}{p}=\frac{-1}{1} \Rightarrow p^2=6\)
and p = -3 or -2
There is no particular value of p for which \(\frac{a_1}{a_2}=\frac{b_1}{b_2}=\frac{c_1}{c_2}\) (True)

(e) The equation of the line whose x and y – intercepts are 1 and -1 respectively is x – y + 1 = 0.
Solution:
Equation of the line whose intercepts 1 and -1 is \(\frac{x}{1}+\frac{y}{-1}\) = 1
or, x – y = 1 (False)

(f) The point (-1, 2) lies on the line 2x + 3y – 4 = 0.
Solution:
Putting x = – 1, y = 2
we have 2 (- 1) + 3 × 2 – 4
= -2 + 6 – 4 = 0
∴ The point (-1, 2) lies on the line 2x + 3 – 4 = 0 (True)

(g) The equation of a line through (1, 1) and (-2, -2) is y = – 2x.
Solution:
The equation of the line through (1, 1) and (-2, -2) is y – y₁ = \(\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\) (x – x₁)
or, y – 1 = \(\frac{-2-1}{-2-1}\) (x – 1)
or, y – 1 = x – 1
or, x – y = 0 (False)

(h) The line through (1, 2) perpendicular to y = x is y + x – 2 =0.
Solution:
The slope of the line y = x is 1.
∴ The slope of the line perpendicular to the above line is -1.
∴ The equation of the line through (1, 2) having slope – 1 is y – y₁ = m(x – x₁)
or, y – 2 = -1 (x – 1)
or, y – 2= -x + 1
or, x + y = 3 (False)

(i) The lines \(\frac{x}{a}+\frac{y}{b}\) = 1 and \(\frac{y}{a}-\frac{x}{b}\) = 1 are intersecting but not perpendicular to each other.
Solution:
\(\frac{x}{a}+\frac{y}{b}\) = 1 and \(\frac{y}{a}-\frac{x}{b}\) = 1
∴ \(m_1 m_2=\frac{\left(-\frac{1}{a}\right)}{\frac{1}{b}} \times \frac{\left(-\frac{1}{b}\right)}{\left(-\frac{1}{a}\right)}=-1\)
∴ The lines intersect and are perpendicular to each other. (False)

(j) The points (1, 2) and (3, – 2) are on the opposite sides of the line 2x + y = 1.
Solution:
2x + y = 1
Putting x = 1, y = 2,
we have 2 × 1 + 2 = 4 > 1
Putting x – 3, y = -2,
we have 2 × 3 – 2 – 4 > 1
∴ Points (1, 2) and (3, – 2) lie on the same side of the line 2x + y = 1 (False)

Obtain the equation of straight lines:
(a) Passing through (1, – 1) and making an angle 150°.
Solution:
The slope of the line
= tan 150° = –\(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\)
∴ The equation of the line is y – y₁ = m(x – x₁)
or, y + 1 = –\(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\) (x – 1)
or, y√3 + √3 = -x + 1
or, x + y√3 + √3 – 1 = 0

(b) Passing through (-1, 2) and making intercept 2 on the y-axis.
Solution:
Let the equation of the line be
y – mx + c or, y = mx + 2
∴ As the line passes through (-1, 2)
we have 2 = – m + 2, or, m = 0
∴ Equation of the line is y = 2.

(c) Passing through the points (2, 3) and (-4, 1).
Solution:
The equation of the line is

(d) Passing through (- 2, 3) and a sum of whose intercepts in 2.
Solution:
Let the equation of the line be \(\frac{x}{a}+\frac{y}{b}\) = 1 where a + b = 2     …….(1)
Again, as the line passes through the point (-2, 3), we have \(\frac{-2}{a}+\frac{3}{b}\) = 1      ………(2)
From (1), we have a= 2 – b
∴ From (2) \(\rightarrow \frac{-2}{2-b}+\frac{3}{b}=1\)
or, – 2b + 6 – 3b = (2 – b)b
or, 6 – 5b = 2b – b²
or, b² – 7b + 6 = 0
or, (b – 6)(b – 1) = 0
∴ b = 6, 1
∴ a =2 – b = 2 – 6 = -4
or, 2 – 1 = 1
∴ Equation of the lines are \(\frac{x}{-4}+\frac{y}{6}\) = 1 or \(\frac{x}{1}+\frac{y}{1}\) = 1
i, e. -3x + 2y = 12 or, x + y = 1

(e) Whose perpendicular distance from the origin is 2 such that the perpendicular from the origin has indication 150°.
Solution:
Here p = 2, α = 150°
The equation of the line in normal form is x cos α + y sin α = p
or, x cos 150° + y sin 150° = 2
or, \(\frac{-x \sqrt{3}}{2}+y \cdot \frac{1}{2}\) = 2
or, -x √3 + y = 4
or, x√3 – y + 4 = 0

Solution:

(j) Passing through (-4, 2) and parallel to the line 4x – 3y = 10.
Solution:
Slope of the line 4x – 3y = 10 is \(\frac{-4}{-3}=\frac{4}{3}\)
∴ The slope of the line parallel to the above line is \(\frac{4}{3}\).
∴ Equation of the line through (- 4, 2) and having slope \(\frac{4}{3}\) is y – y₁ = m(x – x₁)
or, y – 2 = \(\frac{4}{3}\) (x + 4)
or, 3y – 6 = 4x + 16
or, 4x – 3y + 22 = 0

(k) Passing through the point (a cos³ θ, a sin³ θ) and perpendicular to the straight line x sec θ + y cosec θ = α.
Solution:
The slope of the line x sec θ + y cosec θ = a is \(\frac{-\sec \theta}{{cosec} \theta}\) = -tanθ
∴ Slope of the required line  = cot θ
∴ Equation of the line through (a cos³ θ, a sin³ θ) is y – y₁ = m(x – x₁)
or, y – a sin³ θ = cot θ(x – a cos³ θ)
or, y – a sin³ θ = \(\frac{\cos \theta}{\sin \theta}\) (x – a cos³ θ)
or y sin θ – a sin⁴ θ = x cos  θ – a cos⁴ θ
or (x cos θ – y sin θ) + a(sin⁴ θ – cos⁴ θ) = 0

(l) Which passes through the point (3, -4) and is such that its portion between the axes is divided at this point internally in the ratio 2: 3.
Solution:

(m) which passes through the point (α, β) and is such that the given point bisects its portion between the coordinate axis.
Solution:

x = 2α , y = 2β
∴ Equation of the line \(\overleftrightarrow{\mathrm{AB}}\) is \(\frac{x}{2 \alpha}+\frac{y}{2 \beta}\) = 1(Intercept form)

Question 7.
(a) Find the equation of the lines that is parallel to the line 3x + 4y + 7 = 0 and is at a distance 2 from it.
Solution:
3x + 4y + 7 = 0
or, \(\frac{3 x}{5}+\frac{4 y}{5}+\frac{7}{5}\) = 0(Normal form)
∴ Equation of the lines parallel to the above line and 2 units away from it are \(\frac{3 x}{5}+\frac{4 y}{5}+\frac{7}{5}\) ± 2 = 0
or, 3x + 4y + 7 ± 10 = 0
∴ 3x + 4y + 17 = 0 and 3x + 4y – 3 = 0

(b) Find the equations of diagonals of the parallelogram formed by the lines ax + by = 0, ax + by + c = 0, lx + my = 0, and lx + my + n = 0. What is the condition that this will be a rhombus?
Solution:

(c) Find the equation of the line passing through the intersection of 2x – y – 1 = 0 and 3x – 4y + 6 = 0 and parallel to the line x + y – 2 = 0.
Solution:
Let the equation of the required line be (2x – y – 1) + λ(3x – 4y + 6) = 0
or, x(2 + 3λ) + λ(-1 – Aλ) + 6λ – 1 = 0
As this line is parallel to the line x + y – 2 = 0
we have their slopes are equal.
∴ \(-\left(\frac{2+3 \lambda}{-1-4 \lambda}\right)=\frac{-1}{1}\)
or, 2 + 3λ = -1 – 4λ
or, 7λ = -3 or, λ = \(\frac{-3}{7}\)
∴ Equation of the line is (2x – y – 1) – \(\frac{3}{7}\) (3x – 4y + 6) = 0
or, 14x – 7y – 1 – 9x + 12y – 18 = 0
or, 5x + 5y – 25= 0
or, x + y = 5

(d) Find the equation of the line passing through the point of intersection of lines x + 3y + 2 = 0 and x – 2y – 4 = 0 and perpendicular to the line 2y + 5x – 9 = 0.
Solution:
Let the equation of the line be (x + 3y + 2) + λ(x – 2y – 4) = 0
or, x(1 + λ) + y(3 – 2λ) + 2 – 4λ = 0
As this line is perpendicular to the line 2y + 5x – 9 = 0.
We have the product of their slopes is -1.
∴ \(\frac{1+\lambda}{3-2 \lambda} \times \frac{5}{2}\) = -1
or, 5 + 5λ = – 6 + 4λ
or, λ = -6 – 5 = -11.
∴ Equation of the required line is (x + 3y + 2) – 11(x – 2y – 4) = 0
or, x + 3y + 2- 11x + 22y + 44 = 0
or, – 10x + 25y + 46 = 0
or, 10x – 25y – 46 = 0

(e) Find the equation of the line passing through the intersection of the lines x + 3y – 1 = 0 and 3x – y + 1 = 0 and the centroid of the triangle whose vertices are the points (3, -1) (1, 3) and (2, 4).
Solution:
Let the equation of the required line (x + 3y – 1) + λ(3x – y + 1) = 0   … (1)
Again, the centroid of the triangle with vertices (3, – 1), (1, 3), and (2, 4) is \(\left(\frac{3+1+2}{3}, \frac{-1+3+4}{3}\right)\) = (2, 2)
As line (1) passes through (2, 2), we have (2 + 6 – 1) +1(6 – 2 + 1) = 0
or, 7 + 5λ = 0 or, λ = \(\frac{-7}{5}\)
∴ Equation of the line (x + 3y – 1) – \(\frac{7}{5}\) (3x – y + 1) = 0
or, 5x + 15y – 5 – 21x + 7y – 7 = 0
or, 22y – 16x – 12 = 0
or, 11y – 8x – 6 = 0
or, 8x – 11y + 6 = 0

Question 8.
If lx + my + 3 = 0 and 3x – 2y – 1 = 0 represent the same line, find the values of l and m.
Solution:
lx + my + 3 = 0 and 3x – 2y – 1 = 0 represents the same line
∴ \(\frac{l}{3}=\frac{m}{-2}=\frac{3}{-1}\)
∴ l = -9, m = 6

Question 9.
Find the equation of sides of a triangle whose vertices are at (1, 2), (2, 3), and (-3, -5).
Solution:
Equation of \(\overline{\mathrm{AB}}\) is \(y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\left(x-x_1\right)\)
\(y-2=\frac{3-2}{2-1}(x-1)\)
or, y – 2 = x – 1
or, x – y + 1 = 0

Question 10.

(b) Two straight lines are drawn through the point (3, 4) inclined at an angle 45° to the line x – y – 2 = 0. Find their equations and obtain area included by the above three lines.
Solution:

Slope of L₂ = 0
Then as L₂ ⊥ L₃
Slope of L₃ = ∞
∴ Equation of L₂ is
y – y₁ =m(x – x₁)
or, y – 4 = 0(x – 3) = 0
or, y = 4
∴ Equation of L₃ is y – 4 = ∞ (x – 3)
or, x – 3 = 0 or, x = 3
∴ Sloving L₁ and L₂, we have
x – y – 2 = 0, y = 4
or, x = 6
The coordinates of A are (6, 4).
Again solving L1 and L3, we have
x – y – 2 = 0, x = 3
or, y = x – 2 = 3 – 2 = 1
∴ The coordinates of B are (3, 1).
Area of the triangle PAB is

(c) Show that the area of the triangle formed by the lines given by the equations y = m₁x + c₁,y = m₂x + c_2, and x = 0 is \(\frac{1}{2} \frac{\left(c_1-c_2\right)^2}{\left[m_2-m_1\right]}\)
Solution:

Question 12.

Solution:
The slopes of the line 3x + 2y – 5 = 0 and 4x + 3y = 7 are \(\frac{-3}{2}\) and \(\frac{-4}{3}\)
∴ Slopes of the lines perpendicular to the above lines are \(\frac{2}{3}\) and \(\frac{3}{4}\)
∴ Equation of the lines through the origin and having slopes \(\frac{2}{3}\) and \(\frac{3}{4}\)
y = \(\frac{2x}{3}\) and y = \(\frac{3x}{4}\)
Now solving 3x + 2y – 5 = 0 and y = \(\frac{2x}{3}\)
we have 3x + \(\frac{4x}{3}\) – 5 = 0
or, 9x + 4x – 15 = 0
or, x = \(\frac{15}{13}\)
∴ y = \(\frac{2 x}{3}=\frac{2}{3} \times \frac{15}{13}=\frac{10}{13}\)
∴ The perpendicular y = \(\frac{2 x}{3}\) meets the line 3x + 2y – 5 = 0 at \(\left(\frac{15}{13}, \frac{10}{13}\right)\)
Again, solving 4x + 3y = 7 and y = \(\frac{3 x}{4}\)
we have 4x + 3 × \(\frac{3 x}{4}\) = 7
or, 16x + 9x = 28 or, x = \(\frac{28}{25}\)

Question 13.
(a) Find the length of a perpendicular drawn from the point (-3, -4) to the straight line whose equation is 12x – 5y + 65 = 0.

As \(\overline{\mathrm{PM}} \| \mathrm{L}_1\), We have their slopes are equal.

(d) Find the distance of the point (-1, -2) from the line x + 3y – 7 = 0, measured parallel to the line 3x + 2y – 5 = 0
Solution:
Slope of the line 3x + 2y – 5 = 0 is \(\left(-\frac{3}{2}\right)\)
Equation of the line through (-1, -2) and parallel to this line is y + 2 = – \(\frac{3}{2}\) (x + 1)
⇒ 2y + 4 = -3x – 3
⇒ 3x + 2y + 7 = 0 …(1)
Given line is : x + 3y – 7 = 0    ….(2)
from (1) and (2) we get 7y – 28 = 0 Py = 4 and x = \(-\frac{35}{7}\) = -5
Thus the required distance is \(\sqrt{(-1+5)^2+(-2-4)^2} \quad=\sqrt{16+36}\)
= √52 = 2√3 units.

(e) Fine the distance of the line passing through the points (a cos α, a sin α) and (a cos β, a sin β) from the origin.
Solution:
The equation of the line passing through the points (a cos α, a sin α) and (a cos β, a sin β) is y – y₁ = \(\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\) x – x₁
or, y – a sin α

Solution:
Let P(h, k) is any point on the line
2k + 11y – 5 = 0
∴ 2h + 11k – 5 = 0
Now the length of the perpendicular from P on the line 24x + 7y – 20 = 0 is

Clearly d₁ = d₂

Question 17.

Solution:

Question 18.

Solution:

Slope of the line L is \(\frac{-\mathrm{A}}{\mathrm{B}}\)
∴ Slope of the line \(\overline{\mathrm{PM}} \text { is } \frac{\mathrm{B}}{\mathrm{A}}\)
∴ Equation of the line \(\overline{\mathrm{PM}}\) is y – y₁ = m(x – x₁)
or, y – k = \(\frac{\mathrm{B}}{\mathrm{A}}\) (x – h)
or, Ay – Ak =Bx – Bh
or, Bx – Ay + Ak – Bh = 0
∴ Equation of the bisectors of the angles between the lines L and \(\overline{\mathrm{PM}}\) is
\(\frac{\mathrm{A} x+\mathrm{B} y+\mathrm{C}}{\sqrt{\mathrm{A}^2+\mathrm{B}^2}}=\pm \frac{\mathrm{B} x-\mathrm{A} y+\mathrm{A} k-\mathrm{B} h}{\sqrt{\mathrm{B}^2+\mathrm{A}^2}}\)
or, Ax + By + C = ± (Bx – Ay +Ak – Bh)

As \(\overline{\mathrm{BE}} \perp \overline{\mathrm{AC}}\)
we have \(\frac{1+\lambda}{1+3 \lambda} \times \frac{3}{2}\) = -1
or, 3 + 3λ = -2 – 6λ
or, 9λ = – 5 or λ = \(\frac{-5}{9}\)
∴ Equation of \(\overline{\mathrm{BE}}\) is (x + y – 3) – \(\frac{5}{9}\) (x + 3y – 3) = 0

Question 23.

or, x + 2y – 1 = ± (2x + y + 3)
∴ x + 2y – 1 = 2x + y + 3 and
x + 2y – 1= -2x – y – 3
∴ x – y + 4 = 0 and 3x + 3y + 2 = 0
Let θ be the angle between x + 2y – 1 = 0 and x – y + 4 = 0
∴ tan θ = \(\frac{a_1 b_2-a_2 b_1}{a_1 a_2+b_1 b_2}\)
\(=\frac{1 \cdot(-1)-(+1) \cdot 2}{1 \cdot 1+2(-1)}\)
\(=\frac{-1-2}{1-2}=\frac{-3}{-1}=3\)
sec² θ = 1 + tan² θ = 1 + 9 = 10
cos² θ = 1/10
cos θ = \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{10}}<\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\) ⇒ θ > 45°
∴ x – y + 4 = 0 is the obtuse angle bisector.
⇒ 3x + 3y + 2 = 0 is acute angle bisector.

= \(\frac{2 y \sec \theta \pm \sqrt{4 y^2 \sec ^2 \theta-4 y^2}}{2}\)
= \(\frac{-2 y \sec \theta \pm 2 y \tan \theta}{2}\)
= y (- sec θ ± tan θ)

2f = 5. C= -1
∴ h = –\(\frac{1}{2}\), g = –\(\frac{1}{2}\) , f = \(\frac{5}{2}\)
∴ abc + 2fgh – ah² – bg² – ch²
= 10(-6)(-1) + 2 × \(\frac{5}{2}\) × (-\(\frac{1}{2}\)) × (-\(\frac{5}{2}\)) – 10 × \(\frac{2.5}{4}\) – (-6)\(\frac{1}{4}\) – (-1)\(\frac{1}{4}\)

Solution:
x² – xy + y² = 5
Taking x = x’ cos α – y’ sin α
y = x’ sin α – y’ cos α
We get (x’ cos α – y’ sin α)² – (x’ cos α – y’ cos α) (x’ sin α + y’ cos α) + (x’ sin α + y’ cos α)² = 5
⇒ x^‘2 cos² α + y^‘2 sin² α – 2x’y sin α.
cos α – x^‘2 sin α. cos α – x’y cos² α + x’y’ sin² α + y^‘2 sin α. cos α + x^‘2 sin² α + y^‘2 cos² α + 2x’y’ sin α cos α = 5
Given that the transformed equation does not xy term.
