Solution
The correct option is Bx2+y2−3x+4y−3=0
L1:(x−y−6)+λ(2x+y+3)=0 Intersection point of these two lines x−y−6=0 and 2x+y+3=0 is (1,−5) L2:(x+2y−4)+μ(3x−2y−4)=0 Intersection point of these two lines x+2y−4=0 and 3x−2y−4=0 is (2,1). Since lines of these two families are perpendicular to each other, ∴(1,−5) and (2,1) will be the diametric end points of a circle. Hence, (x−1)(x−2)+(y+5)(y−1)=0 ⇒x2+y2−3x+4y−3=0 is the locus of their point of intersection.
