Let the line L:2x+y=αL: \sqrt{2}x + y = \alpha pass through the point of the intersection PP(in the first quadrant)of the circle x2+y2=3{x}^{2} + {y}^{2} = 3 and the parabola x2=2y{x}^{2} = 2y. Let the line LL touch two circles C1{C}_{1} and C2{C}_{2} of equal radius 232\sqrt{3}. If the centres Q1{Q}_{1} and Q2{Q}_{2} of the circles C1{C}_{1} and C2{C}_{2} lie on the y−y -axis, then the square of the area of the triangle PQ1Q2P{Q}_{1}{Q}_{2} is equal to _________.

Correct answer

0

Step-by-step solution

Given: x2+y2=3{x}^{2} + {y}^{2} = 3 and x2=2y{x}^{2} = 2y

⇒y2+2y−3=0⇒ {y}^{2} + 2y - 3 = 0

⇒(y+3)(y−1)=0⇒ \left(y + 3\right)\left(y - 1\right) = 0

⇒y=1,−3(Rejected as it gives imaginary value ofx)⇒ y = 1, - 3\left(\text{Rejected as it gives imaginary value of}x\right)

⇒y=1⇒ y = 1

⇒x=2⇒ x = \sqrt{2}

⇒P≡(2,1)⇒ P ≡ \left(\sqrt{2}, 1\right)

Now, PP lies on the line 2x+y=α\sqrt{2}x + y = \alpha.

⇒2(2)+1=α⇒ \sqrt{2}\left(\sqrt{2}\right) + 1 = \alpha

⇒α=3⇒ \alpha = 3

For circle C1{C}_{1}, Q1{Q}_{1} lies on y−y -axis.

Let Q1≡(0,β){Q}_{1} ≡ \left(0, \beta\right) and R1=23{R}_{1} = 2\sqrt{3} (given)

Line LL act as tangent so applying the condition of tangency

⇒P=r⇒ P = r

⇒∣β−33∣=23⇒ \left|\dfrac{\beta - 3}{\sqrt{3}}\right| = 2\sqrt{3}

⇒∣β−3∣=6⇒ \left|\beta - 3\right| = 6

⇒β−3=6,−6⇒ \beta - 3 = 6, - 6

⇒β=9,−3⇒ \beta = 9, - 3

So, Q1≡(0,9) and Q2≡(0,−3){Q}_{1} ≡ \left(0, 9\right) \text{ and } {Q}_{2} ≡ \left(0, - 3\right)

⇒ Ar\left(\DeltaP{Q}_{1}{Q}_{2}\right) = \dfrac{1}{2}\left|200\begin{array}{ll}\sqrt{2} \\ 0 \\ 0\end{array}19−3\begin{array}{ll}1 \\ 9 \\ - 3\end{array}111\begin{array}{ll}1 \\ 1 \\ 1\end{array}\right|

⇒Ar(\DeltaPQ1Q2)=12(2(12))⇒ Ar\left(\DeltaP{Q}_{1}{Q}_{2}\right) = \dfrac{1}{2}\left(\sqrt{2}\left(12\right)\right)

⇒Ar(\DeltaPQ1Q2)=62⇒ Ar\left(\DeltaP{Q}_{1}{Q}_{2}\right) = 6\sqrt{2}

⇒(\DeltaPQ1Q2)2=72⇒ {\left(\DeltaP{Q}_{1}{Q}_{2}\right)}^{2} = 72
