The point $P(\alpha, \beta)$ with $\alpha > 0, \beta > 0$ undergoes the following transformations successively:
$a)$ Translation by $3$ units in the positive direction of the $x$-axis.
$b)$ Reflection about the line $y = -x$.
$c)$ Rotation of axes through an angle of $\frac{\pi}{4}$ about the origin in the positive direction.
If the final position of the point $P$ is $(-4\sqrt{2}, -2\sqrt{2})$,then find the value of $(\alpha + \beta)$.

  • A
    $5$
  • B
    $7$
  • C

When the equation $x^2 - 3xy + 11x - 12y + 36 = 0$ is transformed by shifting the origin to the point $(-4, 1)$ while keeping the axes parallel,it becomes $ax^2 + bxy + 1 = 0$. Then $b^2 - a = \dots$

If the axes are translated to the orthocentre of the triangle formed by the points $A(7,5), B(-5,-7), C(7,-7)$,then the coordinates of the incentre of the triangle in the new system are

By rotating the axes about the origin in an anti-clockwise direction by a certain angle,if the equation $x^2+4xy+y^2=1$ is transformed to $\frac{x^2}{a^2}-\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1$,then find the value of $\sqrt{\frac{a^2+b^2}{a^2}}$.

The mixed term $xy$ is to be removed from the general equation $ax^2 + by^2 + 2hxy + 2fy + 2gx + c = 0$. One should rotate the axes through an angle $\theta$ given by $\tan 2\theta$ equal to:
