If the lines 3y + 4x = 1, y = x + 5 and 5y + bx = 3 are concurrent, then the value of b is

 

The base BC of a triangle ABC contains the points $\mathrm{P}\left(\mathrm{p}_1, \mathrm{q}_1\right)$ and $\mathrm{Q}\left(\mathrm{p}_2, \mathrm{q}_2\right)$ and the equation of sides AB and AC are $\mathrm{p}_1 \mathrm{x}+\mathrm{q}_1 \mathrm{y}=1$ and $\mathrm{q}_2 \mathrm{x}+\mathrm{p}_2 \mathrm{y}=1$ respectively. The equation of AQ is and $\left(\mathrm{kp}_2 \mathrm{q}_2-1\right)\left(\mathrm{p}_1 \mathrm{x}+\mathrm{q}_1 \mathrm{y}-1\right)=\left(\mathrm{p}_1 \mathrm{p}_2+\mathrm{q}_1 \mathrm{q}_2-1\right)\left(\mathrm{q}_2 \mathrm{x}+\mathrm{p}_2 \mathrm{y}-1\right)$ where $\mathrm{k}=$.

A variable line drawn through the point of intersection of the straight lines $\frac{\mathrm{x}}{\mathrm{a}}+\frac{\mathrm{y}}{\mathrm{b}}=1$ and $\frac{\mathrm{x}}{\mathrm{b}}+\frac{\mathrm{y}}{\mathrm{a}}=1$ meets the co-ordinate axes in $\mathrm{A} \& \mathrm{~B}$. Find the locus of the mid point of AB .

 

A line which makes an acute angle \mathrm{\theta } with the positive direction of the \mathrm{ x-axis } is drawn through the point \mathrm{ P(3, 4) }, to cut the curve \mathrm{ y^2 = 4x} at \mathrm{ Q}  and \mathrm{R}. The lengths of the segments \mathrm{PQ}  and \mathrm{PR} are numerical values of the roots of the equation \mathrm{r2} \mathrm{sin2} \mathrm{\theta }  \mathrm{ + 4r } \mathrm{\left ( 2 sin \theta - cos \theta \right )} \mathrm{+ c } \mathrm{= 0, } where \mathrm{c = }

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
