    The length of the axes of the conic \[9{{x}^{2}}+4{{y}^{2}}-6x+4y+1=0\], are     [Orissa JEE 2002]

    A)            \[\frac{1}{2},\ 9\]                     

    B)            \[3,\ \frac{2}{5}\]

    C)            \[1,\ \frac{2}{3}\]                     

    D)            3, 2

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

               Given that, the equation of conic                    \[9{{x}^{2}}+4{{y}^{2}}-6x+4y+1=0\]            Þ\[{{(3x-1)}^{2}}+{{(2y+1)}^{2}}=1\]Þ \[\frac{{{\left( x-\frac{1}{3} \right)}^{2}}}{\frac{1}{9}}+\frac{{{(y+1)}^{2}}}{\frac{1}{2}}=1\].                    Here\[a=\frac{1}{3}\], \[b=\frac{1}{2}\]; \ \[2a=\frac{2}{3}\], \[2b=1.\]                    Length of axes are\[\left( 1,\,\frac{2}{3} \right)\].
