If the lines `a x+2y+1=0,b x+3y+1=0a n dc x+4y+1=0` are concurrent, then `a ,b ,c` are in (a). A.P. (b). G.P. (c). H.P. (d). none of these

A

A.P.

B

G.P.

C

H.P.

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Given lines will be concurrent , if
`|{:(1,2a,a),(1,3b,b),(1,4c,c):}|=0`
`implies -bc+2ac-ab=0 implies b =(2ac)/(a+c) implies a,b,c` are in H.P.
