Question

 

Find the equation of the circle which cuts orthogonally each of the three circles given below: 

x2 + y2 – 2x + 3y – 7 = 0, x2 + y2 + 5x – 5y + 9 = 0 and x2 + y2 + 7x – 9x + 29 = 0.

Solution

Correct option is

x2 + y2 – 16x – 18y – 4 = 0

 

Let the required circle be  

             x2 + y2 + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0               …(1)

Since it is orthogonal to three given circles respectively, therefore

               

              

  

Subtracting (2) from (3),

               

and subtracting (3) from (4),

                2g – 4f = 20                                     …(6)

Solving (5) and (6), we get

                g = –8       and     f = –9

Putting the values of g and f in (3)

              –40 + 45 = c + 9

⇒                       5 = c + 9 

or                       c = – 4      

Substituting the values of gfc in (1) then required circle is

              x2 + y2 – 16x – 18y – 4 = 0
