A straight line through origin O meets the lines 3 y = 10 - 4 x   and 8 x + 6 y + 5 = 0 at points A and…

A straight line through origin O meets the lines 3y=10-4x and 8x+6y+5=0 at points A and B respectively. Then, O divides the segment AB in the ratio
  1. 2:3
  2. 1:2
  3. 4:1
  4. 3:4

Solution

Let Ar1cosθ, r1sinθ

A Lies on straight line 4x+3y=10

4r1cosθ+3r1sinθ=10

r14cosθ+3sinθ=10
r1=104cosθ+3sinθ

Let B-r2cosθ, -r2sinθ

B lies on line 8x+6y+5=0

8-r2cosθ+6-r2sinθ+5=0

r28cosθ+6sinθ-5=0r2=58cosθ+6sinθ
r1r2=41
