If the locus of the point, whose distances from the point $(2,1)$ and $(1,3)$ are in the ratio $5: 4$, is $a x^2+b y^2+c x y+d x+e y+170=0$, then the value of $a^2+2 b+3 c+4 d+e$ is equal to :
  1. 37
  2. 437
  3. -27
  4. 5

Solution

let $\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{x}, \mathrm{y})$ $\begin{aligned} & \frac{(x-2)^2+(y-1)^2}{(x-1)^2+(y-3)^2}=\frac{25}{16} \\ & 9 x^2+9 y^2+14 x-118 y+170=0 \\ & a^2+2 b+3 c+4 d+e \\ & =81+18+0+56-118 \\ & =155-118 \\ & =37 \end{aligned}$
