If `u=a_1x+b_1y+c_1=0,v=a_2x+b_2y+c_2=0,` and `(a_1)/(a_2)=(b_1)/(b_2)=(c_1)/(c_2),` then the curve `u+k v=0` is the same straight line `u` different straight line not a straight line none of these

A

a family of concurrent lines

B

a family of parallel line

C

u=-0 or v=0

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

We have,`(a_(1))/(a_(2)) = (b_(1))/(b_(2)) ne (c_(1))/(c_(2))`
Therefore, u =0 and v =0 are two parallel line.
Hence, u+kv=0 represents a fimily of parallel lines.
