Question

Find the equation of circle through points of intersection of circle x2 + y2– 2x – 4y + 4 = 0 and the line x + 2y = 4 which touches the line x + 2y = 0.

Solution

Correct option is

x2 + y2 – x – 2y = 0

 

Equation of any circle through points of intersection of the given circle and the line is 

       

      

It will touch the line x + 2y = 0 if solution of equation (1) and x = –2y be unique.  

Hence the roots of the equation  

      

     

Must be equal.  

Then         0 – 4.5.4(1 – λ) = 0 or 1 – λ = 0 or λ = 1  

From (1), the required circle is x2 + y2 – x – 2y = 0.
