If the three distinct lines x + 2ay + a = 0, x + 3by + b = 0 and x + 4ay + a = 0 are concurrent, then the point (a, b) lies on a
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
straight line
x + a(2y + l) = 0
x + b(3y+l) = 0
x + a(4y + l) = 0
2a=0 or b=a
Hence, locus of (a, b) is y =x or x = 0
