Circle 4 Question 12

12. Two circles x2+y2=6 and x2+y26x+8=0 are given. Then the equation of the circle through their points of intersection and the point (1,1) is

(1980,1M)

(a) x2+y26x+4=0

(b) x2+y23x+1=0

(c) x2+y24y+2=0

(d) None of these

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: 12. (b)

Solution:

  1. The required equation of circle is, S1+λ(S2S1)=0.

(x2+y26)+λ(6x+14)=0

Also, passing through (1,1).

4+λ(8)=0λ=12

Required equation of circle is

 or x2+y263x+7=0x2+y23x+1=0
