Question

Find the equation of the circum circle of the quadrilateral formed by the four lines ax + by ± c = 0 and bx – ay ± c = 0.

Solution

Correct option is

 

The given lines can be re-written as

                 ax + by + c = 0                 …(1)

                 ax + by + c = 0                  …(2)

                 bx ay + c = 0                  …(3)

                 bx – ay – c = 0                  …(4)

 

Equation (1) and (2) are parallel and equation (3) and (4) are also parallel.

                    

Since           m1m2 = –1 

Hence ABCD be a square and AC and BD are the diameters of the circle. After solving, we get

        

∴ Equation of circle is
