If $2 x^2+3 x y-2 y^2=0$ represents two sides of a parallelogram and $3 x+y+1=0$ is one of its diagonals, then the other diagonal is
  1. $x-3 y+1=0$
  2. $x-3 y+2=0$
  3. $x-3 y=0$
  4. $3 x-y=0$

Solution

As we know that, If the lines $a x^2+2 h x y+b y^2=0$ be two sides of a parallelogram and the line $l x+m y=1$ be one of its diagonals, then other diagonal is $ y(b l-h m)=x(a m-h l) $ Here, $a=2, b=-2, h=\frac{3}{2}$ $ l=-3, m=-1 $ Putting all values in Eq. (i), we get $ \begin{aligned} \therefore y\left(6+\frac{3}{2}\right) & =x\left(-2+\frac{9}{2}\right) \\ \Rightarrow y\left(\frac{15}{2}\right) & =x\left(\frac{5}{2}\right) \\ 15 y & =5 x \\ 3 y & =x \Rightarrow x-3 y=0 \end{aligned} $
