- Find the perpendicular distance between two lines 3x + 4y – 2 = 0 and 6x + 8y – 1 = 0.
Soln. Here, both the lines are 6x + 8y – 4 = 0 and 6x + 8y – 1 = 0.
∴ p = =
- If 3y + 4x = 1, y = x + 5 and 5y + bx = 3 are concurrent, then find the value of b.
Soln. Here, 4x + 3y – 1 = 0, x – y + 5 = 0 and bx + 5y – 3 = 0 are concurrent.
∴ ⇒ = 0 ⇒ b = 6
- Find the equation of a line which makes X–intercept = 2 and passing through the intersection of x – 2y – 3 = 0 and 3x + 5y + 1 = 0.
Soln. The required line is : x – 2y – 3 + λ ( 3x + 5y + 1 ) = 0.
∴ (1 + 3λ)x + ( – 2 + 5λ) y + ( – 3 + λ) = 0.
Now, X – intercept =
Hence, the equation of a required line is : 10x – 9y – 20 = 0
- Is 4x2 + 4y2 – 12x + 24y + 29 = 0 represent a circle ? If yes, find its centre and radius.
Soln. First divide the whole equation by 4 we get : x2 + y2 – 3x + 6y + \frac{29}{4} = 0
Compare with, x2 + y2 + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0, we get
g = , f = 3 and c =
Now, g2+ f2– c =
= 4 > 0
Now, centre = ( – g, – f) =
Radius = = 2
∴ The given eq. represents a circle.
- (4, – 5) lies ………….. the circle x2 + y2 – 4x + 6y – 5 = 0.
Soln. Here, (4) 2 + ( – 5) 2 – 4 (4) + 6 ( – 5) – 5 = – 10 < 0
∴ (4, – 5) lies inside the given circle.
