Solution

The correct option is B g1g
To get equation of pair of straight lines,

We have
ax2+2hxy+by2+2gx=0

ax2+2hxy+by2+2gx(1)=0 (1)

(a1x2+2h1xy+b1y2+2g1x=0

a1x2+2h1xy+b1y2=2g1x

a1x2+2h1xy+b1y22g1x=1

Putting value of x in equation(1),
we get,
ax2+2hxy+by2+2gx(a1x2+2h1xy+b1y22g1x)=0

ax2+2hxy+by2g(a1x2+2h1xy+b1y2g1)=0

x2(aa1gg1)+2(hh1gg1)xy+y2(bb1gg1)=0

This is the equation of pair of straight lines and given that the lines are perpendicular,
hence Coefficient of x2+Coefficient of y2=0

aa1gg1+bb1gg1=0

ag1a1g+bg1b1gg1=0

g1(a+b)g(a1+b1)=0

(a1+b1)a+b=g1g
(Hence proved)
