MCQ
The angle between the straight lines $x^2+4 x y+y^2=0$ is
  • A
    $30^{\circ}$
  • B
    $45^{\circ}$
  • $60^{\circ}$
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: C.
$60^{\circ}$
(C) Given equation of pair of lines is $x^2+4 x y+y^2=0$
$\therefore \quad a=1, h=2, b=1$
$\therefore \quad \tan \theta=\left|\frac{2 \sqrt{h^2-a b}}{a+b}\right|=\left|\frac{2 \sqrt{(2)^2-(1)(1)}}{1+1}\right|=\sqrt{3}$
$\Rightarrow \theta=\tan ^{-1}(\sqrt{3})=60^{\circ}$
