Given pair of lines is \mathrm{y^2-9 x y+18 x^2=0} _________(I)

Or \mathrm{(y-3 x)(y-6 x)=0}

Hence given lines are \mathrm{y-3x=0} ---------(II)

                                    \mathrm{y-6x=0} ---------(III)

                and  \mathrm{y=a} -----------(IV)

Vertices of triangle formed are  \mathrm{(0,0),\left(\frac{a}{3}, a\right),\left(\frac{a}{6}, a\right)}

Area of the triangle =  \mathrm{e}=\frac{1}{2}\left|\left(\frac{a}{3} \cdot a-a \cdot \frac{a}{6}\right)\right|=\frac{a^2}{12}
