The equation `8x^2 +8xy +2y^2+26x +13y+15=0` represents a pair of straight lines. The distance between them isA. `(7)/(sqrt5)`B. `(7)/(2sqrt5)`C. `sqrt((7)/(5))`D. none of these |

Answer» Correct Answer - B The distance between the parallel straight lines given by `ax^(2)+2hxy+by^(2)+2gx+2fy+c=0` is given by `d=2sqrt((g^(2)-ac)/(a(a+b)))` Here, a = 8, b= 2 c = 15, g = 13. `therefore" Required distance = 2"sqrt((169-120)/(80))=2xx(7)/(4sqrt5)=(7)/(2sqrt5)` |
