Distance between the pair of lines repre...

Distance between the pair of lines represented by the equation `x^(2)-6xy+9y^(2)+3x-9y-4=0`, is

A

`(15)/(sqrt(10))`

B

`(1)/(2)`

C

`sqrt((5)/(2))`

D

`(1)/(sqrt(10))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

The distance between the pair of straight lines given by
`ax^(2)+2hxyt+by^(2)+2gx+2fy+c=0`
is `=2sqrt((g^(2)-ac)/(a(a+b)))`
Here, a=1,b=9,c=-4,g=`(3)/(2)`
Required distance
`=2sqrt((9//4)-(-4))/(1(1+9)))`
`=2sqrt((25//4)/(10))=sqrt((5)/(2))`
