Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables — Question Ex 3.2 Q2
Back to all questionsEx 3.2 Class 10 Maths Question 2.
On comparing the ratios \(\frac { { a }_{ 1 } }{ { a }_{ 2 } }\), \(\frac { { b }_{ 1 } }{ { b }_{ 2 } }\)
and \(\frac { { c }_{ 1 } }{ { c }_{ 2 } }\) , find out whether the lines representing the following pairs of linear equations intersect at a point, are parallel or coincident:
(i) 5x – 4y + 8 = 0, 7x + 6y – 9 = 0
(ii) 9x + 3y + 12 = 0, 18x + 6y + 24 = 0
(iii) 6x – 3y + 10 = 0, 2x -y + 9 = 0
CBSE Class 10 Pair of Linear Equations — Complete Guide
This chapter carries 5-6 marks and is crucial for the Algebra unit. Master graphical and algebraic methods for solving pairs of linear equations.
Quick Revision: Key Concepts
- Unique solution: a1/a2 ≠ b1/b2 (intersecting lines)
- Infinite solutions: a1/a2 = b1/b2 = c1/c2 (coincident lines)
- No solution: a1/a2 = b1/b2 ≠ c1/c2 (parallel lines)
- Methods: Substitution, Elimination, Cross-multiplication
- Reducible equations: Substitute u = 1/x, v = 1/y
Most Important Questions
- Determine consistency of a system of equations
- Solve using elimination or substitution method
- Word problems: age, speed, fraction, geometry type
- Equations reducible to linear form (1/x, 1/y type)
