Solution

The correct option is B a11a12=b11b12
The curves are
a1x2+b1y2=1 (1)
and a2x2+b2y2=1 (2)

Differentiating both equations
(dydx)1=a1xb1y
(dydx)2=a2xb2y

The curves intersect orthogonally.
(a1xb1y)(a2xb2y)=1

a1a2x2=b1b2y2 (3)

(1)(2) gives
(a1a2)x2+(b1b2)y2=0
(a1a2)b1b2y2a1a2+(b1b2)y2=0 (From (3))
a1a2a1a2=b1b2b1b2
1a21a1=1b21b1
1a11a2=1b11b2
