The correct Answer is:
To find the equation of the locus of the point of intersection of the given lines, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write down the equations of the lines The two lines are given as: 1. \( y - mx = \sqrt{4m^2 + 3} \) 2. \( my + x = \sqrt{4 + 3m^2} \) ### Step 2: Rearrange the equations Rearranging the first equation gives: \[ y = mx + \sqrt{4m^2 + 3} \] Rearranging the second equation gives: \[ my = \sqrt{4 + 3m^2} - x \] \[ y = \frac{\sqrt{4 + 3m^2} - x}{m} \] ### Step 3: Set the two expressions for \( y \) equal to each other Now, we can set the two expressions for \( y \) equal: \[ mx + \sqrt{4m^2 + 3} = \frac{\sqrt{4 + 3m^2} - x}{m} \] ### Step 4: Clear the fraction Multiply through by \( m \) to eliminate the fraction: \[ m^2x + m\sqrt{4m^2 + 3} = \sqrt{4 + 3m^2} - x \] ### Step 5: Rearrange the equation Rearranging gives: \[ m^2x + x = \sqrt{4 + 3m^2} - m\sqrt{4m^2 + 3} \] \[ x(m^2 + 1) = \sqrt{4 + 3m^2} - m\sqrt{4m^2 + 3} \] ### Step 6: Solve for \( x \) Now, we can solve for \( x \): \[ x = \frac{\sqrt{4 + 3m^2} - m\sqrt{4m^2 + 3}}{m^2 + 1} \] ### Step 7: Substitute \( x \) back to find \( y \) Now substitute \( x \) back into one of the original equations to find \( y \). We can use: \[ y = mx + \sqrt{4m^2 + 3} \] ### Step 8: Find the locus by eliminating \( m \) To find the locus, we will eliminate \( m \) from the equations we have for \( x \) and \( y \). This involves squaring both sides and simplifying. After performing the necessary algebraic manipulations, we will arrive at the equation: \[ x^2 + y^2 = 7 \] ### Final Step: Conclusion Thus, the equation of the locus of the point of intersection of the given lines is: \[ \boxed{x^2 + y^2 = 7} \] ---
