Solution

Given, 2x2+3xy2y2=0
2x2+4xyxy2y2=0
(2xy)(x+2y)=0
2x2+3xy2y2+3x+y+1
=(2xy+λ1)(x+2y+λ2)
By comparing coefficients,
3=2λ2+λ1
1=λ2+2λ1
Solving, we get
λ1=1,λ2=1

So, the lines representing quadrilateral are
2xy=0(1)x+2y=0(2)2xy+1=0(3)x+2y+1=0(4)
(1) and(3),(2) and(4) are parallel.
Also, (1),(2) are r, so the quadrilateral can be either be a square or rectangle.

Distance between (1) and (3)= Distance between (2) and (4)=15 units.
So, it represent square, whose area
A=1520A=4 sq.units
