The correct answer is:
$p q=-1$
$p q=-1$
Equation of bisector of both pair of straight lines,
$p x^2+2 x y-p y^2=0$
$q x^2+2 x y-q y^2=0$
From (1) and (2). $\frac{\mathrm{q}}{1}=\frac{2}{-2 \mathrm{p}}=\frac{-\mathrm{q}}{-1} \Rightarrow \mathrm{pq}=-1$
$p x^2+2 x y-p y^2=0$

$q x^2+2 x y-q y^2=0$

From (1) and (2). $\frac{\mathrm{q}}{1}=\frac{2}{-2 \mathrm{p}}=\frac{-\mathrm{q}}{-1} \Rightarrow \mathrm{pq}=-1$
