    Equation \[\sqrt{ax}+\sqrt{by}=1\] represents -

    A) circle                

    B) a parabola

    C) an ellipse                      

    D) hyperbola

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Here, \[\sqrt{ax}+\sqrt{by}=1\]
    Squaring both sides, \[ax+by+2\sqrt{abxy}=1\]
    Or \[2\sqrt{abxy}=(1-ax-by)\] again squaring \[4abxy=1+{{a}^{2}}{{x}^{2}}+{{b}^{2}}{{x}^{2}}+{{b}^{2}}{{y}^{2}}-2ax-2by+2abxy\]\[{{a}^{2}}{{x}^{2}}+{{b}^{2}}{{y}^{2}}-2abxy-2ax-2by+1=0\]
    which is clearly as parabola. \[({{H}^{2}}-AB=0;\,\,\,\Delta \ne 0)\]
