x + y = – 10 ……………….. (1)
Solving (1) & (2)
– 3y = 18 ⇒ y = – 6
x + y + 10 = 0 ⇒ x – 6 + 10 = 0 ⇒ x = – 4
∴ Orthocentre of AABC is (- 4, – 6)

Answer:
Equations of the given lines are
kx + y + 9 = 0
3x – y + 4 = 0
TS Inter 1st Year Maths 1B Solutions Chapter 3 Straight Lines Ex 3(e) 9
⇒ (k2 + 1) 10 = 2 (3k – 1)2
⇒ 10k2 + 10 = 2(9k2 – 6k + 1)
⇒ 8k2 – 12k – 8 = 0
⇒ 4k2 – 6k – 4 = 0
⇒ 2k2 – 3k – 2 = 0
⇒ (k – 2) (2k + 1) = 0 – 1
⇒ k = 2 or \(\frac{-1}{2}\)

Question 8.
Find the equation of the straight line passing through the origin and also through the point of intersection of lines 2x – y + 5 = 0 and x + y + 1 = 0. (V.S.A.Q.)
Answer:
Equations of given lines are
L1 = 2x – y + 5 = 0 and L2 = x + y + 1= 0
Equation of any line passing through A is
L1 + k L2 = 0
⇒ (2x – y + 5) + k(x + y + 1) = 0 (1)
This line passes through (0, 0) then
5 + k = 0 ⇒ k = – 5
Substituting in (1) equation of OA is
(2x – y + 5) – 5(x + y + 1) = 0
⇒ – 3x – 6y = 0
⇒ x + 2y = 0

Question 9.
Find the equation of the straight line parallel to the line 3x + 4y = 7 and passing through the point of intersection of the lines x – 2y – 3 = 0 and x + 3y – 6 = 0. (S.A.Q.)
Answer:
Let L1 = x + 3y – 6 = 0 and L2 = x – 2y – 3 = 0 be the given lines.
Equation of any line passing through the intersection is L1 + KL2 = 0
⇒ (x + 3y – 6) + k (x – 2y – 3) = 0 ….. (1)
⇒ x(1 + k) + y (3 – 2k) – (6 + 3k) = 0
This is parallel to 3x + 4y = 7
a1b2 = a2b1
⇒ 4(1 + k) = 3 (3 – 2k)
⇒ 4 + 4k = 9 – 6k
⇒ 10k = 5 ⇒ k = \(\frac{1}{2}\)
∴ From (1) (x + 3y – 6) + \(\frac{1}{2}\) (x – 2y – 3) = 0
⇒ 3x + 4y – 15 = 0
Equation of the required line is 3x + 4y – 15 = 0

Question 10.
Find the equation of the straight line perpendicular to the line 2x + 3y = 0 and passing through the point of intersection of lines x + 3y – 1 = 0 and x – 2y + 4 = 0. (S.A.Q.)
Answer:
Let L1 = x + 3y – 1 = 0
and L2 = x – 2y + 4 = 0
Equation of any line passing through the
point of intersection of L1 = 0, L2 = 0 is L1 + kL2 = 0
⇒ (x + 3y – 1) + k (x – 2y + 4) = 0 (1)
⇒ x(1 + k) + y (3 – 2k) – (1 – 4k) = 0
Slope of the line is –\(\left(\frac{1+\mathrm{k}}{3-2 \mathrm{k}}\right)\)
Slope of the given line 2x + 3y = 0 is \(\frac{-2}{3}\)
∴ Since the lines are perpendicular
\(\left(\frac{1+\mathrm{k}}{3-2 \mathrm{k}}\right)\left(\frac{2}{3}\right)\) = – 1
⇒ 2 + 2k = – 3 (3 – 2k)
= – 9 + 6k
⇒ 4k = 11 ⇒ k = \(\frac{11}{4}\)
Substituting in (1) equation of required line is
(x + 3y – 1) + \(\frac{11}{4}\)(x – 2y + 4) = 0
⇒ 4x + 12y – 4 + 11x – 22y + 44 = 0
⇒ 15x – 10y + 40 = 0
⇒ 3x – 2y + 8 = 0

Question 11.
Find the equation of the straight line making non-zero equal intercepts on the coordinate axes and passing through the point of intersection of the lines 2x – 5y + 1 = 0 and x – 3y – 4 = 0. (S.A.Q.)
Answer:
Equations of the given lines are
L1 = 2x – 5y + 1 = 0
and L2 = x – 3y – 4 = 0
Equation of any line passing through the point of intersection of L1 = 0, L2 = 0 is
L1 + kL2 = 0
⇒ (2x – 5y + 1) + k (x – 3y – 4) = 0 …. (1)
⇒ (2 + k) x – (5 + 3k) y + (1 – 4k) = 0
Intercepts on coordinate axes are equal.
⇒ 2 + k = – 5 – 3k
⇒ 4k = -7 ⇒ k = \(\frac{-7}{4}\)
∴ From (1) (2x – 5y + 1) – \(\frac{-7}{4}\) (x – 3y – 4) = 0
⇒ x + y + 32 = 0

Question 12.
Find the length of the perpendicular drawn from the point of intersection of the lines 3x + 2y + 4 = 0 and 2x + 5y – 1 = 0 to the straight line 7x + 24y – 15 = 0. (S.A.Q.)
Answer:
Equation of the given lines
3x + 2y + 4 = 0
2x + 5y – 1 = 0
Solving
TS Inter 1st Year Maths 1B Solutions Chapter 3 Straight Lines Ex 3(e) 10
⇒ x = – 2, y = 1
Coordinates of point of intersection are (-2, 1)
Equation of the given line is 7x + 24y -15 = 0
∴ Length of the perpendicular from (-2, 1) to 7x + 24y – 15 = 0 is
\(\left|\frac{-14+24-15}{\sqrt{49+576}}\right|=\frac{5}{25}=\frac{1}{5}\)

Question 13.
Find the value of ‘a’ if the distances of the points (2, 3) and (-4, a) from the straight line 3x + 4y – 8 = 0 are equal. (S.A.Q.)
Answer:
Let A (2, 3) and B (-4, a) be the two points.
The distance from (2, 3) to the line 3x + 4y – 8 = 0 is
= \(\left|\frac{3(2)+4(3)-8}{\sqrt{3^2+4^2}}\right|\) = \(\frac{10}{5}\) = 2.
The distance from B(- 4, a) to the line 3x + 4y – 8 = 0
= \(\left|\frac{3(-4)+4 a-8}{\sqrt{3^2+4^2}}\right|\) = \(\frac{|4 a-20|}{5}\)
∴ 2 = \(\frac{|4 a-20|}{5}\)
⇒ |4a – 20| = 10 ⇒ 4a – 20 = ±10
⇒ 4a = 30 or 4a = 10
⇒ a = \(\frac{15}{2}\) or a = \(\frac{5}{2}\)

E is the mid point of AC
(0-3 -2 + 0
∴ Coordinates of E = \(\left(\frac{0-3}{2}, \frac{-2+1}{2}\right)\)
= \(\left(\frac{-3}{2}, \frac{-1}{2}\right)\)
Slope of AC is \(\frac{-2-1}{0+3}\) = – 1
∴ Slope of SE = 1
∴ Equation of SE is y + \(\frac{1}{2}\) = 1 \(\left(x+\frac{3}{2}\right)\)
⇒ 2y + 1 = 2x + 3
⇒ 2x – 2y + 2 = 0
⇒ x – y + 1 = 0 ……………… (5)
Solving (4) and (5) we get the coordinates of circumcentre ‘S’.

Question 3.
Find the equation of the straight lines passing through (1, 1) and which are at a distance of 3 units from (- 2, 3). (E.Q.)
Answer:
Let the line passing through A(l, 1) has slope’m’ then equation of the line is y – 1 = m(x – 1)
⇒ mx – y + (1 – m) = 0 …………… (1)
Distance from (-2, 3) to the line = 3
∴ \(\frac{|m(-2)-3+(1-m)|}{\sqrt{m^2+1}}\) = 3
⇒ (3m + 2)2 = 9(m2 + 1)
9m2 + 12m + 4 = 9m2 + 9
⇒ 12m = 5 ⇒ m = \(\frac{5}{12}\)
Coefficient of m2 = 0 ⇒ m = ∞
(i) m = ∞
Equation of the line is y – 1 = \(\frac{1}{0}\) (x – 1)
⇒ x = 1

(ii) m = \(\frac{5}{12}\)
Substitute in (1)
Equation of the line is y – 1 = \(\frac{5}{12}\) (x – 1)
⇒ 12y – 12 = 5x – 5
⇒ 5x – 12y + 7 = 0

Question 4.
If p and q are the lengths of the perpendiculars from the origin to the straight lines x sec α + y cosec α = a and x cos α – y sin α = a cos 2α. Prove that 4p2 + q2 = a2 (E.Q.)
Answer:
Equation of the line is x sec α + y cosec α = α
⇒ \(\frac{x}{\cos \alpha}+\frac{y}{\sin \alpha}\) = a
⇒ x sin α + y cos α = a sin α cos α
⇒ x sin α + y cos α – a sin α, cos α = 0 …….. (1)
p = length of the perpendicular from 0 on the line (1)
= \(\left|\frac{0+0-a \sin \alpha \cos \alpha}{\sqrt{\sin ^2 \alpha+\cos ^2 \alpha}}\right|\)
⇒ a sin α + cos α = p
⇒ 2p = a sin 2 α
Equation of the other given line is
x cos α – y sin α = a cos 2α ………………. ( 2 )
q = length of the perpendicular from 0 on the line (2)
∴ q = \(\left|\frac{a \cos 2 \alpha}{\sqrt{\cos ^2 \alpha+\sin ^2 \alpha}}\right|\)
⇒ a2 cos2 2α = q2
∴ 4p2 + q2 = a2 sin2 2α + a2 cos2
= a2 (sin2 2α + cos2 2α) = a2 (1) = a2

Question 7.
A triangle is formed by the lines ax + by + c = 0, lx + my + n = 0 and px + qy + r = 0. Given that the triangle is not right angled, show that the straight line \(\frac{a x+b y+c}{a p+b q}\) = \(\frac{l \mathbf{x}+\mathbf{m y}+\mathbf{n}}{l \mathbf{p}+\mathbf{m q}}\) passes through the orthocentre of the triangle. (E.Q.)
Answer:
Given equations of lines are
ax + by + c = 0 ……………… (1)
lx + my + n = 0 ……………. (2)
px + qy + r = 0 ……………… (3)
Equation of the line passing through the point of intersection of (1) and (2) is
(ax + by + c) + k (/x + my + n) = 0 (4)
⇒ (a + kl) x + (b + km) y + (c + nk) = 0
It is perpendicular to (3) then
p(a + kl) + q (b + km) = 0
⇒ k = – \(\left(\frac{\mathrm{ap}+\mathrm{bq}}{l \mathrm{p}+\mathrm{mq}}\right)\)
Substitute in (4) we get
(ax + by + c) – \(\left(\frac{\mathrm{ap}+\mathrm{bq}}{l \mathrm{p}+\mathrm{mq}}\right)\) (lx + my + n) = 0
⇒ \(\frac{\mathrm{ax}+\mathrm{by}+\mathrm{c}}{\mathrm{ap}+\mathrm{bq}}=\frac{l \mathrm{x}+\mathrm{my}+\mathrm{n}}{l \mathrm{p}+\mathrm{mq}}\)
is the required equation of the line line passing through the orthocentre of triangle which represents the altitude through A.

\(\frac{u_3}{a_3 b_1-a_1 b_3}=\frac{u_2}{a_1 b_2-a_2 b_1}\) (E.Q.)
Answer:
A is a point of intersection of lines u2 = 0 and u3 = 0
Equation of the line passing through A is u2 + λu3 = 0
⇒ (a2x + b2y + c2) + λ(a3x + b3y + c3) = 0 …….(1)
⇒ (a2 + λa3)x + (b2 + λb3)y + (c2 + λc3) = 0
