The correct Answer is:
To find the equation of two straight lines through the point \((x_1, y_1)\) and perpendicular to the lines given by the equation \(ax^2 + 2hxy + by^2 = 0\), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the given equation The given equation of the conic section is: \[ ax^2 + 2hxy + by^2 = 0 \] This represents two straight lines that intersect at the origin. ### Step 2: Determine the slopes of the lines The slopes of the lines represented by the equation can be found using the formula derived from the quadratic equation: \[ m^2 + \frac{2h}{a}m + \frac{b}{a} = 0 \] Let the slopes of the lines be \(m_1\) and \(m_2\). ### Step 3: Find the slopes of the perpendicular lines The slopes of the lines that are perpendicular to these lines will be the negative reciprocals of \(m_1\) and \(m_2\). If \(m_1\) and \(m_2\) are the slopes of the original lines, then the slopes of the perpendicular lines, say \(m_3\) and \(m_4\), will be: \[ m_3 = -\frac{1}{m_1}, \quad m_4 = -\frac{1}{m_2} \] ### Step 4: Write the equations of the lines through the point \((x_1, y_1)\) Using the point-slope form of the equation of a line, the equations of the lines through the point \((x_1, y_1)\) with slopes \(m_3\) and \(m_4\) can be written as: \[ y - y_1 = m_3(x - x_1) \quad \text{and} \quad y - y_1 = m_4(x - x_1) \] ### Step 5: Substitute the slopes Substituting \(m_3\) and \(m_4\) into the equations gives us: \[ y - y_1 = -\frac{1}{m_1}(x - x_1) \quad \text{and} \quad y - y_1 = -\frac{1}{m_2}(x - x_1) \] ### Step 6: Rearranging to standard form Rearranging these equations to standard form will yield the required equations of the two lines through the point \((x_1, y_1)\). ### Final Result The final equations of the two lines through the point \((x_1, y_1)\) and perpendicular to the lines given by \(ax^2 + 2hxy + by^2 = 0\) can be expressed as: \[ b(x - x_1)^2 - 2h(x - x_1)(y - y_1) + a(y - y_1)^2 = 0 \]
