Detailed Solution

Given family of lines, (1+2λ)x(1+λ)y+1=0

    (xy+1)+λ(2xy)=0

 Family of lines passing through point of intersection of lines

     xy+1=0 and 2xy=0

i.e. through the point (1, 2). 

Since, the family of lines form an equilateral triangle with the line x+y=5.

 y2=1±tan601(1)tan60(x1)  y2=1±31(3)(x1)y2=1+31+3(x1)

  and y2=1313(x1)  y2=(23)(x1)

and  y2=(2+3)(x1)
