Find the separate equation of the line represented by the following equation:

x2 + 2(cosec α)xy + y2 = 0

Sum

Solution

x2 + 2(cosec α)xy + y2 = 0

i.e. y2 + 2(cosec α)xy + x2 = 0

Dividing by x2, we get,

`("y"/"x")^2 + 2"cosec"alpha. ("y"/"x") + 1 = 0`

`therefore "y"/"x" = (-2 "cosec" alpha  +- sqrt(4"cosec"^2 alpha - 4 xx 1 xx 1))/(2xx1)`

`= (-2 "cosec" alpha  +- 2sqrt("cosec"^2 alpha - 1))/2`

= - cosec α ± cot α

`therefore "y"/"x" = ("cot" alpha - "cosec" alpha)` and

`"y"/"x" = - ("cosec" alpha + "cot" alpha)`

The separate equations of the lines are

(cosec α - cot α) x + y = 0 and (cosec α + cot α) x + y = 0
