Question
The combined equation of the pair of lines through $(3, - 2)$ and parallel to the lines $x^{2} - 4xy + 3y^{2} = 0$ is :
Options
A.$x^{2} - 4xy + 3y^{2} - 14x - 24y - 45 = 0$
B.$x^{2} + 4xy + 3y^{2} + 14x - 24y - 45 = 0$
C.$x^{2} - 4xy + 3y^{2} - 14x + 24y + 45 = 0$
D.$x^{2} + 4xy - 3y^{2} - 14x + 24y + 45 = 0$
Solution
Sol. [Key Concept: Pair of lines parallel to a given pair through a point: translate the origin — replace $(x,y)$ by $(x - 3,\ y + 2)$ in the pair.]
$$(x - 3y)(x - y) = 0$$
Equation of line parallel to line $x - 3y = 0$ and passing through $(3, - 2)$ is
$L_{1} \equiv x - 3y = 9$
Similarly equation of line, parallel to line $x - y = 0$ and passing through $(3, - 2)$ is $L_{2} \equiv x - y = 5$
∴ Equation of pair $L_{1}$ and $L_{2}$ is $(x - 3y - 9)(x - y - 5) = 0$
$$\Rightarrow x^{2} - 4xy + 3y^{2} - 14x + 24y + 45 = 0$$
