  • question_answer
    Equation  \[3{{x}^{2}}+7xy+2{{y}^{2}}+5x+5y+2=0\] represents [UPSEAT 2002]

    A)            Pair of straight line            

    B)            Ellipse

    C)            Hyperbola                             

    D)            None of these

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

               For a pair of straight lines,                    \[abc+2fgh-a{{f}^{2}}-b{{g}^{2}}-c{{h}^{2}}=0\]                    \[(3)(2)(2)+2\cdot \left( \frac{5}{2} \right)\,\left( \frac{5}{2} \right)\,\left( \frac{7}{2} \right)-3{{\left( \frac{5}{2} \right)}^{2}}-2{{\left( \frac{5}{2} \right)}^{2}}-2{{\left( \frac{7}{2} \right)}^{2}}=0\].                    Hence, given equation represents a pair of straight lines.
