3.0 Bisector of angle between the lines
The joint equation of bisectors of the angles between the lines represented by the equation $a{x^2} + 2hxy + b{y^2} = 0$ is $$\frac{{{x^2} - {y^2}}}{{a - b}} = \frac{{xy}}{h}$$

or, $$h{x^2} - (a - b)xy - h{y^2} = 0$$
i.e., coefficient of ${x^2}$ $+$ coefficient of ${y^2}$ $=0$.

Hence, the bisectors of the angle between the lines are always perpendicular to each other as shown in the figure.
