The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we need to determine the values of \( k \) such that the lines \( x + 2y = 3 \), \( 2x + 3y = 5 \), and \( k^2 x + ky = -1 \) form a right-angled triangle. ### Step 1: Determine the slopes of the given lines 1. **First line:** \( x + 2y = 3 \) - Rearranging gives \( 2y = -x + 3 \) or \( y = -\frac{1}{2}x + \frac{3}{2} \) - Slope \( m_1 = -\frac{1}{2} \) 2. **Second line:** \( 2x + 3y = 5 \) - Rearranging gives \( 3y = -2x + 5 \) or \( y = -\frac{2}{3}x + \frac{5}{3} \) - Slope \( m_2 = -\frac{2}{3} \) 3. **Third line:** \( k^2 x + ky = -1 \) - Rearranging gives \( ky = -k^2 x - 1 \) or \( y = -\frac{k^2}{k}x - \frac{1}{k} \) - Slope \( m_3 = -k \) ### Step 2: Conditions for a right-angled triangle For the triangle to be right-angled, the product of the slopes of any two lines must equal -1. We will check the combinations: 1. **Between the first and second lines:** \[ m_1 \cdot m_2 = \left(-\frac{1}{2}\right) \cdot \left(-\frac{2}{3}\right) = \frac{1}{3} \quad \text{(not perpendicular)} \] 2. **Between the first and third lines:** \[ m_1 \cdot m_3 = \left(-\frac{1}{2}\right) \cdot (-k) = \frac{k}{2} = -1 \implies k = -2 \] 3. **Between the second and third lines:** \[ m_2 \cdot m_3 = \left(-\frac{2}{3}\right) \cdot (-k) = \frac{2k}{3} = -1 \implies k = -\frac{3}{2} \] ### Step 3: Values of \( k \) The values of \( k \) that make the triangle right-angled are: - \( k_1 = -2 \) - \( k_2 = -\frac{3}{2} \) ### Step 4: Calculate \( |(k_1 + k_2) / (k_1 - k_2)| \) 1. **Calculate \( k_1 + k_2 \):** \[ k_1 + k_2 = -2 - \frac{3}{2} = -\frac{4}{2} - \frac{3}{2} = -\frac{7}{2} \] 2. **Calculate \( k_1 - k_2 \):** \[ k_1 - k_2 = -2 + \frac{3}{2} = -\frac{4}{2} + \frac{3}{2} = -\frac{1}{2} \] 3. **Calculate \( \frac{k_1 + k_2}{k_1 - k_2} \):** \[ \frac{k_1 + k_2}{k_1 - k_2} = \frac{-\frac{7}{2}}{-\frac{1}{2}} = \frac{7}{1} = 7 \] 4. **Final result:** \[ |(k_1 + k_2) / (k_1 - k_2)| = |7| = 7 \] ### Final Answer: The value of \( |(k_1 + k_2) / (k_1 - k_2)| \) is \( 7 \).
