    Any equation of line through the point of intersection of the lines $L_1=a_1 x+b_1 y+c_1=0$ and $L_2=a_2 x+b_2 y+c_2=0$ can be represented as

    $
    \begin{aligned}
    & \mathrm{a}_1 \mathrm{x}+\mathrm{b}_1 \mathrm{y}+\mathrm{c}_1+\lambda\left(\mathrm{a}_2 \mathrm{x}+\mathrm{b}_2 \mathrm{y}+\mathrm{c}_2\right)=0 \\
    & \text { or, } \mathrm{L}_1+\lambda \mathrm{L}_2=0
    \end{aligned}
    $
    Where $\lambda$ is a parameter.

    Note:.

    The equation $L_1+\lambda L_2=0$ or $\mu L_1+v L_2=0$ represents a line passing through the intersection of the lines $L_1$ $=0$ and $L_2=0$ which is a fixed point. And $\lambda, \mu, v$ are constants
