If the coordinates at one end of a diameter of the circle x²+y²-8 x-4 y+c=0 are (-3,2) , then the coordinates at the other end are
Options
- A(5,3)
- B(6,2)
- C(1,-8)
- D(11,2)
Correct answer
D. (11,2)
Step-by-step solution
The centre of the given circle is C (4,2) Let A (-3,2) If ( , ) are the coordinates of the other end of the diameter, then, as the middle ploint of the diameter is the centre, -3 2 =4 and +2 2 =2 =11, =2 Thus, the coordinates of the other end of diameter are (11,2)
