Let and be the vertices of a parallelogram ABCD. If the point C lies on 2x – y = 5 and the point D lies on 3x – 2y = 6, then the value of is equal to __________. [2024]
(32)
We have, A(–2, –1), B(1, 0), and be the vertices of a parallelogram ABCD.
Since, lies on 2x – y = 5
... (i)
Also, lies on the line 3x – 2y = 6

So, ... (ii)
Now,
... (iii)
From (ii),
Solving (i) and (iii), we get
.
