Question

If the origin be one limiting point of a system of co-axial circles of whichx2 + y2 + 3x + 4y + 25 = 0 is a member, find the other limiting point.

Solution

Correct option is

(–6, –8)

 

Equation of circle with origin as limiting point is  

                (x – 0)2 + (y – 0)2 = 0

or             x2 + y2 = 0

belongs to the system of co-axial circles of which one member is

                x2 + y2 + 3x + 4y + 25 = 0   

Hence the equation of the whole system is

               

Radius of (1) can be zero for limiting point, then

                 

             9 + 16 – 100(1 + λ) = 0    

  

or (–6, –8) is the other limiting point of the system.
