Question

Prove that one of the lines represented by the equation
ax3+bx2y+cxy2+dy3=0
will bisect the angle between the other two if
(3a+c)2(bc+2cd3ad)=(b+3d)2(bc+2ab3ad).

Solution

ax3+bx2y+cxy2+dy3=0

Lines represented by the equation will be of form y=mx

dm3+cm2+bm+a=0........(i)m1+m2+m3=cd.......(ii)m1m2m3=ad.......(iii)

One of the line is the angle bisector

m2m11+m2m1=m3m21+m2m3m2+m22m3m1m1m2m3=m3+m1m2m3m2m22m12m2+m22(m3+m1)=2m1m2m3+m3+m1

Using (ii) and (iii)

2m2+m22(cdm2)=2adm2cd3m2m32cdm22=2a+cd3dm2dm32cm22=2acdm32+cm2=2a+c+3dm2......(iv)

m2 is also a root of (i)

dm32+cm22+bm2+a=0dm32+cm22=bm2a........(v)

From (iv) and (v)
bm2a=2a+c+3dm23dm2+bm2=3acm2=3ac3d+b=3a+c3d+b

Substituting m2 in (i)

d(3a+c3d+b)3+c(3a+c3d+b)2b3a+c3d+b+a=0(3a+c3d+b)2(cd3a+c3d+b)=b3a+c3d+ba(3a+c3d+b)2(3cd+bc3adcd)=3ab+bc3bdab(3a+c)2(2cd+bc3ad)=(3d+b)2(2ab+bc3bd)

Hence proved.
