Options:
A) $ 2( \sqrt{2}+1 ) $
B) $ 3+2\sqrt{2} $
C) $ \sqrt{2}+1 $
D) $ 2( 3+2\sqrt{2} ) $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
- tangent to $ x^{2}+y^{2}=4 $ $ y=mx\pm 2\sqrt{1+m^{2}} $ $ x^{2}=4y $ $ x^{2}=4mx+8\sqrt{1+m^{2}} $ $ x^{2}=4mx-8\sqrt{1+m^{2}}=0 $ D = 0 $ 16m^{2}+4.8\sqrt{1+m^{2}}=0 $ $ m^{2}+2\sqrt{1+m^{2}}=0 $ or $ m^{2}=\sqrt{1+m^{2}} $ $ m^{4}=4+4m^{2} $ $ m^{4}-4m^{2}-4=0 $ $ m^{2}=\frac{4\pm \sqrt{16+16}}{2} $ $ =\frac{4\pm 4\sqrt{2}}{2} $ $ m^{2}=2+2\sqrt{2} $
