(b) $2 x^{2}+2 y^{2}+2 x+4 y-7=0$

(c) $x^{2}+y^{2}-2 x-4 y+4=0$

(d) None

Show Answer

Solution: $\left.\begin{array}{l}x-2 y+3=0 \\ 2 x-3 y+4=0\end{array}\right\} P(1,2)$

Let image be $\mathrm{B}(\mathrm{h}, \mathrm{k})$ then $\mathrm{AP}=\mathrm{BP}$

$\Rightarrow(\mathrm{h}-1)^{2}+(\mathrm{k}-2)^{2}=1^{2}+1^{2}$

$\mathrm{h}^{2}+\mathrm{k}^{2}-2 \mathrm{~h}-4 \mathrm{k}+5=2$

$\mathrm{x}^{2}+\mathrm{y}^{2}-2 \mathrm{x}-4 \mathrm{y}+3=0$

Answer : d

15. If the lines $a x+y+1=0, x+b y+1=0$ and $x+y+c=0 (a, b, c$ being distinct and different from 1$)$ are concurrent, then $\left(\dfrac{1}{1-a}\right)+\dfrac{1}{1-b}+\dfrac{1}{1-c}=$

(a) 0

(b) 1

(c) $\dfrac{1}{a+b+c}$

(d) None

Show Answer

Solution:

$\mathrm{c} _{2} \rightarrow \mathrm{c} _{2}-\mathrm{c} _{1}, \mathrm{c} _{3} \rightarrow \mathrm{c} _{3}-\mathrm{c} _{1}$

$\left|\begin{array}{ccc}\mathrm{a} & 1 & 1 \\ 1 & \mathrm{~b} & 1 \\ 1 & 1 & \mathrm{c}\end{array}\right|=0 \Rightarrow\left|\begin{array}{ccc}\mathrm{a} & 1-\mathrm{a} & 1-\mathrm{a} \\ 1 & \mathrm{~b}-1 & 0 \\ 1 & 0 & \mathrm{c}-1\end{array}\right|=0$

$a(b-1)(c-1)-(1-a)(c-1)+(1-a)(1-b)=0$

divide by $(1-a)(1-b)(1-c)$ we get

$\Rightarrow \quad \dfrac{a}{1-a}+\dfrac{1}{1-b}+\dfrac{1}{1-c}=0$

$\Rightarrow \quad \dfrac{1}{1-\mathrm{a}}+\dfrac{1}{1-\mathrm{b}}+\dfrac{1}{1-\mathrm{c}}=1$

16. The set of values of ’ $b$ ’ for which the origin and the point $(1,1)$ lie on the same side of the st. line $\mathrm{a}^{2} \mathrm{x}+\mathrm{aby}+1=0 \quad \forall \mathrm{a} \in \mathrm{R}, \mathrm{b}>\mathrm{o}$ are

(a) $\mathrm{b} \in[2,4)$

(b) $\mathrm{b} \in(0,2)$

(c) $\mathrm{b} \in[0,2]$

(d) None of these

Show Answer

Solution: $(0,0)$ & $(1,1)$ are on the same side

$0+1>0$ so $\mathrm{a}^{2}+\mathrm{ab}+1>0$

$\Rightarrow \mathrm{D}<0$ i.e

$b^{2}-4<0$

$b^{2}<4$

$-2<b<2$ but $b>0$

$\therefore \mathrm{b} \in(0,2)$

17. Let $P(-1,0), Q(0,0)$ and $R(3,3 \sqrt{3})$ be three points. Then the equation of the bisector of the angle $\mathrm{PQR}$ is

(a) $\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \mathrm{x}+\mathrm{y}=0$

(b) $x+\sqrt{3} y=0$

(c) $\sqrt{3} \mathrm{x}+\mathrm{y}=0$

(d) $x+\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2} y=0$

Show Answer

Solution:

$\dfrac{\sqrt{3}-m}{1+\sqrt{3 m}}=\dfrac{m}{1+0}$

$\begin{aligned} \sqrt{3}-m=m+\sqrt{3} m^{2} \Rightarrow & \sqrt{3} m^{2}+2 m-\sqrt{3}=0 \\ & \sqrt{3} m^{2}+3 m-m-\sqrt{3}=0 \\ & (\sqrt{3} m-1)(3+\sqrt{3})=0 \\ & m=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{3}},-\sqrt{3} \end{aligned}$

$y=-\sqrt{3} \mathrm{x}$

$\sqrt{3} x+y=0$

18. $\mathrm{OPQR}$ is a square and $\mathrm{M}, \mathrm{N}$ are the mid points of the sides $\mathrm{PQ}$ and $\mathrm{QR}$ respectively. If the ratio of the areas of the square and the triangle OMN is $\lambda: 6$, then $\dfrac{\lambda}{4}$ is equal to

(a) 2

(b) 4

(c) 12

(d) 16

Show Answer

Solution: ar. of square $=a^{2}$

ar of $\Delta \mathrm{OMN}=\dfrac{1}{2}\left|\begin{array}{lll}0 & 0 & 1 \\ \mathrm{a} & \dfrac{\mathrm{a}}{2} & 1 \\ \dfrac{\mathrm{a}}{2} & \mathrm{a} & 1\end{array}\right|=\dfrac{1}{2} \cdot \dfrac{3 \mathrm{a}^{2}}{4}=\dfrac{3 \mathrm{a}^{2}}{8}$

$\dfrac{\mathrm{a}^{2}}{\dfrac{3 \mathrm{a}^{2}}{8}}=\dfrac{\lambda}{6} \Rightarrow \lambda=16$

Answer : b

19. A pair of perpendicular straight lines drawn through the origin form an isoceles triangle with line $2 x+3 y=6$, then area of the triangle so formed is

(a) $\dfrac{36}{13}$

(b) $\dfrac{12}{17}$

(c) $\dfrac{13}{5}$

(d) $\dfrac{17}{13}$

Show Answer Solution: $\mathrm{OM}=\left|\dfrac{-6}{\sqrt{4+9}}\right|=\dfrac{6}{\sqrt{13}}, \mathrm{PQ}=2 \times \dfrac{6}{\sqrt{13}}$, area of $\triangle \mathrm{OPQ}=\dfrac{1}{2} \times \dfrac{2 \times 6}{\sqrt{13}} \times \dfrac{6}{\sqrt{13}}=\dfrac{36}{13}$
