JEE Main & Advanced Mathematics Straight Line Question Bank Mock Test - Straight Lines

  • question_answer
    A light ray coming along the line \[3x+4y=5\] gets reflected from the line \[ax+by=1\]and goes along the line\[5x-12y=10\]. Then

    A)  \[a=64/115,\text{ }b=112/15\]

    B)  \[a=14/15,\text{ }b=-8/115\]

    C)  \[a=64/115,\text{ }b=-8/115\]

    D)  \[a=64/15,\text{ }b=14/15\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] \[ax+by=1\]Will be one of the bisectors of the given line. Equations of bisectors of the given lines are \[\frac{3x+4y-5}{5}=\pm \left( \frac{5x-12y-10}{13} \right)\] Or \[64x-8y=115\] Or \[14x+112y=15\] Or \[a=\frac{64}{115},b=-\frac{8}{115}\] Or \[a=\frac{14}{15},b=\frac{12}{115}\]
