Straight LineHard
Question
A straight line through the originO meets the parallel lines 4x + 2 y = 9 and 2x + y + 6 = 0 at points P andQ respectively. Then , the Point O divides the segment PQ in the ratio
Options
A.1 : 2
B.3 : 4
C.2 : 1
D.4 : 3
Solution
Now, distance of origin from 4x + 2 y - 9 = 0 is
and distance of origin from 2x + y + 6 = 0
Hence, the required ration
and distance of origin from 2x + y + 6 = 0
Hence, the required ration
