Equation 2x2+5xy+3y2+6x+7y+4=0 represents a pair of straight lines. Find the separate straight lines.
x+y+1 = 0
2x+3y+4 = 0
It is given that equation 2x2+5xy+3y2+6x+7y+4=0 represents the pair of straight lines
We can write this equation as quadratic equation in x
We have
2x2+(5y+6)x+3y2+7y+4=0
Roots of the given equation
X=−(5y+6)±√(5y+6)2−4.2(3y2+7y+4)4
=−(5y+6)±√25y2+60y+36−24y2−56y−324
X=−(5y+6)±√y2+4y+44
X=−(5y+6)±(y+2)4
X=−5y−6+y+24,−5y−6−y−24
Or 4x = -4y - 4 , 4x + 6y + 8 = 0
X + y + 1 = 0 and 2x + 3y + 4 = 0
