The Straight Line Class 11 OP Malhotra Exe-16J ISC Maths Ch-16 Solutions.
Que-1: The lines x – 2y + 6 = 0 and 2x – y – 10 = 0 intersect at P. Without finding the co-ordinates of P prove that the equation of the line through P and the origin of co-ordinates is perpendicular to 39x + 33y – 580 = 0.
Sol: Let given eqns. of lines are
x – 2y + 6 = 0 …(1)
2x – y – 10 = 0 …(2)
Let the coordinates of point of intersection of lines (1) and (2) be P(h, k).
and P(h, k) lies on (1) and (2); we get
h – 2k = – 6 …(3)
and 2h – k = 10 …(4)
On dividing (3) and (4); we have
(h−2k)/(2h−k) = −3/5
⇒ 5h – 10k = -6h + 3k
⇒ 11h = 13k ⇒ k/h = 11/13
Now, slope of line OP = (k−0)/(h−0) = k/h = 11/13 = m1
Also, slope of given line 39x + 33y – 580 = 0
=m2 = −39/33 = −13/11
Here m1m2 = (11/13) × (−13/11) = -1
Hence the line joining OP is ⊥ to the line 39x + 33y – 580 = 0
Que-2: A point P moves so that its distance from the line given x = – 3 is equal to its distance from the point (3, 0). Show that the locus of P is y2 = 12x.
Sol: Let P(h, k) be any point on locus Then by given condition, we have
| h + 3 | = √{(h−3)²+(k−0)²}
On squaring both sides; we have
(h + 3)2 = (h – 3)2 + k2
⇒ h2 + 6h + 9 = h2 – 6h + 9 + k2
⇒ 12h = k2
Thus locus of P(h, k) be given by y2 = 12x
Que-3: A (2, 5), B(4,- 11) are two fixed points and C is a point which moves on the line 3x + 4y + 5 = 0. Find the locus of the centroid of the triangle ABC.
Sol: Let the coordinates of point C are (h, k) and also point C(h, k) lies on given line
3x + 4y + 5 = 0
∴ 3h + 4k + 5 = 0 …(1)
∴ Coordinates of centroid G are
[{(2+4+h)/3}, {(5-11+k)/3}]
[{(6+h)/3}, {(-6+k)/3}]
Also let the centroid G of △ABC be (α, β) whose locus is to be find out.
∴ α = {(6+h)/3}
⇒ 3α – 6 = h
and β = {(−6+h)/3}
⇒ 3β + 6 = k
∴ from (1) ; we have
3(3α – 6) + 4(3β + 6) + 5 = 0
⇒ 9α + 12β + 11 = 0
Thus the locus of point (α, β) be given by 9x + 12y + 11 = 0
Que-4: Find the cartesian equation of the curve whose parametric equations are :
(i) x = t, y = 3 t + 5;
(ii) x = t, y = t2;
(iii) x = 4 cos θ, y = 4 sin θ;
(iv) x = 4 cos θ; y = 3 sin θ.
Sol: (i) Given parametric eqns. of curve are
x = t …(1)
and y = 3t + 5 …(2)
For locus, we eliminate t from eqns. (1) and (2);
y = 3x + 5 which is the required locus.
(ii) Given parametric eqns. are
x = t …(1)
y = t2 …(2)
For locus, we eliminate t from (1) and (2); we have
y = x2 which is the required locus.
(iii) Given parametric eqns. of curve are ;
x = 4 cos θ ⇒ (x/4) = cos θ …(1)
and y = 4 sin θ ⇒ (y/4) = sin θ …(2)
On squaring and adding eqn. (1) and eqn. (2) ; we have
(x/4)² + (y/4)² = cos² θ + sin² θ = 1
⇒ x² + y² = 16
which is the required locus.
(iv) Given parametric eqns. of curve are
x = 4 cos θ ⇒ x/4 = cos θ …(1)
and y = 3 sin θ ⇒ y/3 = sin θ …(2)
For locus, we eliminate θ from (1) and (2) On squaring and adding (1) and (2); we have
(x/4)² + cos² θ + sin² θ = 1
⇒ (x²/16) + (y²/9) = 1
which is the required eqn. of locus.
Que-5: Find the locus of the point of intersection of the lines x = a/m² and y = 2a/m, where m is a parameter
Sol: Given eqns. of lines are ;
x = a/m² …(1)
and y = 2a/m …(2)
To find the locus of point of intersection of lines (1) and (2), we have to eliminate m from (1) and (2).
From (2); m = 2a/y
∴ from (1); x = a/(2a/y)²
⇒ x = (ay²)/(4a²)
⇒ ay² = 4a²x
⇒ y² = 4ax, which is the required locus.
Que-6: Find the intersection S of the lines x – ty + t2 = 0, tx + y – t3 – 2t = 0 Show that S lies on the curve whose equation is y2 = 4x. Sketch this curve.
Sol: Given eqn. of lines are
x – ty = t2 = 0 …(1)
tx + y – t3 – 2t = 0 …(2)
Multiplying eqn. (2) by t + eqn. (1) ; we have
(1 + t2) x + t2 – t4 – 2t2 = 0
⇒ (1 + t2) x – t4 – t2 = 0
⇒ (1 + t2) x = t2(t2 + 1) ⇒ x = t2
∴ from (1); t2 – ty + t2 = 0 ⇒ ty = + 2t2
⇒ y = 2t

Thus, required point of intersection of lines (1) and (2) be (t2, 2t)
Let S(h, k) be any point on the locus
∴ h = t2 …(3)
and k = 2t …(4)
For locus, we eliminate t from (3) and (4) ; we have
h = (k/2)² ⇒ h = k²/4 ⇒ k2 = 4h
Thus the required locus of S(h, k) be given by y2 = 4x
Que-7: Find the locus of the middle point of the portion of the line x cos α + y sin α = p, where p is a constant, intercepted between the axes.
Sol: The eqn. of given line be
x cos α + y sin α = p …(1)
eqn. (1) meets x-axis at y = 0
∴ x = p/cosα
and eqn. (1) meets y-axis at x = 0
∴ y = p/cosα
Thus line (1) meets coordinate axes at
A [{p/cosα}, 0] and B [0, {p/cosα}]
Let P (h,k) be the mid-point of AB whose locus is to be find out.
