MCQ
Angle between the lines $2 x^2-3 x y+y^2=0$ is
  • A
    $\tan ^{-1}(\sqrt{3})$
  • B
    $\cot ^{-1}(\sqrt{3})$
  • $\cot ^{-1}(3)$
  • D
    $\tan ^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\right)$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$\cot ^{-1}(3)$
(C) Given equation of pair of lines is
$2 x^2-3 x y+y^2=0$
$\therefore \quad a=2, h=\frac{-3}{2}, b=1$
$\therefore \quad \tan \theta=\left|\frac{2 \sqrt{\frac{9}{4}-2}}{3}\right|=\left|\frac{\sqrt{9-8}}{3}\right|=\frac{1}{3}$
$\therefore \cot \theta=3 \Rightarrow \theta=\cot ^{-1}$ (3)
