Question

Find the locus of pole of the line lx + my + n = 0 with respect to the circle which touches y-axis at the origin.

Solution

Correct option is

y(lx – h) = mx2

 

Let the centre be (h, 0) 

Equation S ≡ (x – h)2 + (y)2 = h2   

          or  x2 + y2 – 2xh = 0   

Let the pole be (x1y1) then polar with respect to circle

            

            

Identical with lx + my + n = 0   

            

             

          

So locus of pole (x1y1

If       y(lx – h) = mx2.
