Solution

The given pair of st lines passes through origin intersect equation of line side AB:lx+my=1 or y=1n(1lx)
Putting this y in equation of Pair of st lines will give coordinates of A and B.

ax2+2nx[1lxm]+b[1lxm]2 so,
am2x2+2mnx(1ln)+b(1ln)2 so,
x2[am22mnl+bl2]+x[2mn2l]+b So
Solution are x1 and x2x1+x2=2(lbnm)am22mnl+bl2 .....(1)
A lies on AB A lies on AB
lx1+my11 lx2+my21
Adding l(x1+x2)+m(y1+y2)=2
Using equation (1)
2l(lbhm)am22mnl+bl2+m(y1+y2)=2
m(y1+y2)=(2am24mnl+2bl22bl2+2lhm)(am22mhl+bl2)
d((y1+y2))=(2am2mhl)am22mnl+bl2
(y1+y22)=2(amhl)am22mhl+bl2
G=[x1+x2+03,y1+y2+o3]α,β
α=x1+x23 β=y1+y23
α=2(lbhm)am22hml+bl2 β=2(amhl)3[am22mhl+bl2]
α(lbhm)=βamhl=23[am22mhl+b2]
Hence proved.
