Answer:
Correct Answer: 91.$A \rightarrow s ; B \rightarrow p, q ; C \rightarrow r ; D \rightarrow p, q, s$
Solution:
- (A) Solving equations $L _1$ and $L _3$,
$\frac{x}{-36+10}=\frac{y}{-25+12} =\frac{1}{2-15}$
$\therefore \quad x =2, y=1$
$ L _1, L _2, L _3 \text { are concurrent, if point }(2,1) \text { lies on } L _2 $
$ \therefore \quad 6-k-1=0 \quad \Rightarrow \quad k=5 $
(B) Either $L _1$ is parallel to $L _2$, or $L _3$ is parallel to $L _2$, then
$ \begin{aligned} \frac{1}{3} & =\frac{3}{-k} \text { or } \quad \frac{3}{5}=\frac{-k}{2} \quad \Rightarrow \quad k=-9 \\ \text { or } \quad k & =\frac{-6}{5} \end{aligned} $
(C) $L _1, L _2, L _3$ form a triangle, if they are not concurrent, or not parallel.
$ \therefore \quad k \neq 5,-9,-\frac{6}{5} \Rightarrow k=\frac{5}{6} $
(D) $L _1, L _2, L _3$ do not form a triangle, if
$ k=5,-9,-\frac{6}{5} $
