4 x d x − 2 y d y − 3 ( x d y + y d x ) = 0
4 x d x − 2 y d y − 3 d ( x y ) = 0
Integrating,
2 x 2 − y 2 − 3 x y = c
Since this represents the joint equation of lines through the origin, c = 0.
( 2 x − y ) ( x − y ) = 0
Thus , the two individual lines are y = x and y = 2 x
The acute angle between lines with slopes m 1 & m 2 is given by,
θ = arctan ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ 1 + m 1 m 2 m 1 − m 2 ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣
Substituting m 1 = 2 , m 2 = 1
θ = arctan ( 3 1 )
a + b = 1 + 3 = 4
