Questions  

The orthocentre of the triangle formed by the lines y=0,(1+t)xty+t(1+t)=0  and  (1+u)xuy +u(1+u)=0(tu)  for all values of t and u lies on the line.

a
x – y = 0
b
x + y = 0
c
x – y + 1 = 0
d
x + y + 1 = 0

detailed solution

Correct option is B

The orthocentre (x, y) lies on the lines.y=−u1+u(x+t)and y=−t1+t(x+u)⇒[(1+u)−(1+t)]y+(u−t)x=0⇒(u−t)(x+y)=0⇒x+y=0 as u≠t
