Question

 

Find the equations of the two circles which intersect the circles

        x2 + y2 – 6y + 1 = 0 and x2 + y2 – 4y + 1 = 0  

Orthogonally and touch the line 3x + 4y + 5 = 0.   

Solution

Correct option is

 

Let the required circle be

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

and given circles are     x2 + y2 – 6y +1 = 0                        …(2)

and                                x2 + y2 – 4y + 1 = 0                       …(3)

Since (1) cuts (2) and (3) orthogonally

   

Solving (4) and (5), we get

                     = 0 and c = –1  

Centre and radius of (6) are (–g, 0) and  respectively.

Since 3x + 4y + 5 = 0 is tangent of (6), then length of perpendicular from (–g, 0) to this line = radius of circle  

  

                                

   

  

Equations of circles are from (6),
