If the point P(a^2,a) lies in the region...

If the point `P(a^2,a)` lies in the region corresponding to the acute angle between the lines `2y=x` and `4y=x` , then find the values of `adot`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`alpha in (2,4)`

Acute angle is formed by lines in first the third quadrants.

But `a^(2) gt 0, " and hence, point " P(a^(2),a)` lies in the first quadrant.
`"We have "a-(a^(2))/(4) gt 0 " and " a-(a^(2))/(2) lt 0`
`rArr a in (0,4) " and " a in (-oo, 0) uu (2, oo )`
`rArr a in (2,4)`
