Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : A.P. Concept: If a, b, c are in A.P then 2b = a + c Calculations: Given, the straight line ax + by + c = 0 always passes through (1, -2). ⇒The point (1, -2) is satisfying the equation of line ax + by + c = 0. ⇒ a(1) +b (-2)+ c = 0 ⇒ 2b = a + c ⇒ we can say that 2b = a + c. then a, b, c are in A.P

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : A.P.

Concept:

If a, b, c are in A.P then 2b = a + c

Calculations:

Given, the straight line ax + by + c = 0 always passes through (1, -2).

⇒The point (1, -2) is satisfying the equation of line ax + by + c = 0.

⇒ a(1) +b (-2)+ c = 0

⇒ 2b = a + c

⇒ we can say that 2b = a + c. then a, b, c are in A.P
