The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze both statements provided and determine their validity. ### Step 1: Analyze Statement II The second statement claims that the lines represented by the general equation of the second degree \( ax^2 + 2hxy + by^2 + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0 \) are perpendicular if \( a + b = 0 \). 1. **Understanding the Condition for Perpendicular Lines**: - The angle \( \theta \) between the lines can be determined using the formula: \[ \tan \theta = \frac{2\sqrt{h^2 - ab}}{a + b} \] - For the lines to be perpendicular, \( \tan \theta \) must be undefined, which occurs when \( a + b = 0 \). 2. **Conclusion for Statement II**: - Since \( a + b = 0 \) results in the lines being perpendicular, Statement II is **true**. ### Step 2: Analyze Statement I The first statement claims that the four straight lines given by \( 6x^2 + 5xy - 6y^2 = 0 \) and \( 6x^2 + 5xy - 6y^2 - x + 5y - 1 = 0 \) are the sides of a square. 1. **Finding the Lines from the First Equation**: - The equation \( 6x^2 + 5xy - 6y^2 = 0 \) can be factored to find the slopes of the lines. - This is a quadratic in \( x \) and can be expressed as: \[ 6x^2 + 5xy - 6y^2 = 0 \implies (6x - 6y)(x + y) = 0 \] - The lines are \( y = x \) and \( y = -\frac{6}{5}x \). 2. **Finding the Lines from the Second Equation**: - The second equation \( 6x^2 + 5xy - 6y^2 - x + 5y - 1 = 0 \) can also be analyzed similarly. - Rearranging gives us: \[ 6x^2 + 5xy - 6y^2 = x - 5y + 1 \] - This is more complex, but we can check if the slopes yield perpendicular lines. 3. **Checking Perpendicularity**: - For the lines to form a square, they must be perpendicular. - We check the coefficients of \( x^2 \) and \( y^2 \) from both equations: - From the first equation, \( a_1 = 6 \) and \( b_1 = -6 \) gives \( a_1 + b_1 = 0 \). - From the second equation, we can similarly find \( a_2 + b_2 = 0 \). 4. **Conclusion for Statement I**: - Since both sets of lines are perpendicular, they can indeed form the sides of a square. Thus, Statement I is **true**. ### Final Conclusion Both statements are true.
