The circle C _ 1 : x ^ 2 + y ^ 2 = 3, with centre at O, intersects...
The circle with centre at O, intersects the parabola at the point P in the first quadrant. Let the tangent to the circle at P touches other two circles and at and , respectively. Suppose and have equal radii and centres and , respectively. If and lie on the y - axis, then

Options
- A
- B
- Carea of the triangle is
- Darea of the triangle is
Correct answer
A.
Step-by-step solution
On solving we get point of tangent at P
\sqrt{2}x + y = 3{Q}_{2}2\sqrt{3}∴ \left|\dfrac{\sqrt{2}\left(0\right)+ k - 3}{\sqrt{2 + 1}}\right| = 2\sqrt{3}
and {Q}_{3}
Hence
Perpendicular distance of origin O from is equal to distance of O from tangent which is same as radius of circle
Hence area of
Perpendicular Distance of P from
Area of 12 \times \sqrt{2} = 6\sqrt{2}
