Question

If the line 2xy+3=0 is at distances 15 and  from the lines 4x2y+α=0 and 6x3y+β=0 respectively the sum of all possible values of a and β,, is

Moderate
Solution

It is given that

3α2=15 and 3β34+1=253α2=1 and 3β3=2|6α|=2 and |9β|=6

 6α=±2 and 9β=±6 α=4,8 and β=3,15

Hence, the sum of all possible values of α and β is 4 + 8 + 3 + 15 = 30 .
