A pair of lines \(S=\mathbf{0}\) together with the lines given by the equation \(8 x^2-14 x y+3 y^2+10 x+10 y-25=0\) form a parallelogram. If its diagonals intersect at the point \((3,2)\), then the equation \(S=0\), is
  1. \(6 x^2-9 x y+y^2-25 x+30 y+25=0\)
  2. \(8 x^2-14 x y+3 y^2-25 x+30 y+50=0\)
  3. \(8 x^2-14 x y+3 y^2-50 x+50 y+75=0\)
  4. \(6 x^2+14 x y-3 y^2-30 x+40 y-75=0\)

Solution

Equation of given pair of straight lines is \(\begin{array}{rlrl} & 8 x^2-14 x y+3 y^2+10 x+10 y-25 & =0 \\ \Rightarrow & & (4 x-y-5)(2 x-3 y+5) & =0 \end{array}\) Now point of intersection of lines \(\begin{aligned} 4 x-y-5 & =0 \\ 2 x-3 y+5 & =0 \text { is }(2,3) \end{aligned}\) So equation of \(S=0\) is \(\left(4 x-y+c_1\right)\left(2 x-3 y+c_2\right)=0\) and \(S=0\) passes through a point \(P\left(x_1, y_1\right)\) such that mid-point of \(P\left(x_1, y_1\right)\) and \((2,3)\) is \((3,2)\). so, \(\begin{array}{ll} \text {so, } & x_1=4 \text { and } y_1=1 \\ \therefore & c_1=-15 \text { and } c_2=-5 \end{array}\) So, required equation is \(\begin{array}{r} (4 x-y-15)(2 x-3 y-5)=0 \\ \Rightarrow 8 x^2-14 x y+3 y^2-50 x+50 y+75=0 \end{array}\)
