Let C be the circle of minimum area touching the parabola y=6-x^2 and the lines y= 3 |x| . Then, which one of the following points lies on the circle C ?
Options
- A(1,2)
- B(1,1)
- C(2,2)
- D(2,4)
Correct answer
D. (2,4)
Step-by-step solution
Equation of circle x ^2+( y -(6- r ))^2= r ^2 touches 3 x - y =0 aligned & p = r & |0-(6- r )| 2 = r & | r -6|=2 r & r =2 aligned Circle x ^2+( y -4)^2=4(2,4) Satisfies this equation
