Question

Prove that the area of the parallelogram, the equations of whose
sides are
a1x+b1y+c1=0,a1x+b1y+d1=0
a2x+b2y+c2=0,a2x+b2y+d2=0
is (d1c1)(d2c2)a1b2a2b1

Open in App
Solution

p1=d1c1(a21+b21),p2=d2c2(a22+b22)
Also sinθ=a1b2a2b1(a21+b21)(a22+b22)
Area of parallelogram
p1p2sinθ=(c1d2)(c1d2)a1b2a2b1
Note: If these lines enclose a rhombus, then
p1=p2
(c1d2)(a22+b22)=(c2d2)(a21+b21).
