Application +4 | -1

a{x^2} - {y^2} + 4x - y = 0

represents a pair of lines, then

a

is equal to

View answer and explanation

Correct option: B

The correct answer is B (16) because the condition for a general second-degree equation to represent a pair of straight lines is applied, and the value of 'a' is calculated.
