A straight line through the origin O meets the parallel lines 4x + 2y = 9 and 2x + y + 6 = 0 at points P and Q respectively. Then, the point 0 divides the segment PQ in the ratio
(a) 1 : 2
(b) 3 : 4
(c) 2 : 1
(d) 4 : 3
Correct option: (b) 3 : 4
Explanation:
Now, distance of origin from 4x + 2y - 9 = 0 is
