1 Easy

1 of 1

Application +4 | -1

The lines joining the origin to the points of intersection of

3 x^2+\lambda x y-4 x+1=0

and

2 x+y-1=0

are at right angles for

View answer and explanation

Correct option: D

all values of

\lambda

Option D (all values of

\lambda

) is correct because the homogeneous equation of the lines joining the origin to the intersection points results in a pair of perpendicular lines, independent of

\lambda
