Detailed Solution
let R=rcosθ,rsinθ, P=r1cosθ,r1sinθ ,Q=r2cosθ,r2sinθ parametric coordinatesP lies on the line 2x+5y-3=0 ⇒2r1cosθ+5r1sinθ-3=0 ⇒2cosθ+5sinθ=3r1 and since Q lies on the line 4x+7y-3=0⇒4cosθ+7sinθ=3r2given that r1,r,r2 are in H.P ⇒ 2r=1r1+1r2=2cosθ+5sinθ3+4cosθ+7sinθ36=6r cosθ+ 12r sinθ⇒ x+2y=1 is the locus of R
