Question

Find the equation of the circle passing through the point of intersection of the circles x2 + y2 – 6x + 2y + 4 = 0, x2 + y2 + 2x – 4y – 6 = 0 and with its centre on the line y = x.

Solution

Correct option is

7x2 + 7y2 – 10x – 10y – 12 = 0

 

Equation of any circle through the points of intersection of given circles is

              (x2 + y2 – 6x + 2y + 4) + λ(x2 + y2 + 2x – 4y – 6) = 0   

⇒      x2(1 + λ) + y2(1+ λ) – 2x(3 – λ) + 2y(1 – 2λ) + (4 – 6λ) = 0

    

   

   

  

∴ Substituting the value of λ = 4/3 in (1), we get the required equation is 

               7x2 + 7y2 – 10x – 10y – 12 = 0
