Let a circle CC touch the lines L1:4x−3y+K1=0andL2:4x−3y+K2=0,K1,K2∈R{L}_{1}: 4x - 3y + {K}_{1} = 0 and {L}_{2}: 4x - 3y + {K}_{2} = 0, {K}_{1}, {K}_{2} \in R. If a line passing through the centre of the circle CC intersects L1{L}_{1} at \left(- 1, 2\right)andL2at(3,−6)and {L}_{2} at \left(3, - 6\right), then the equation of the circle CC isLet a circle C touch the lines L _ 1 : 4x - 3y + K _ 1 = 0 and L _ 2 : 4x - 3y + K _ 2 = 0, K _ 1 , K _ 2 ∈ R . If a

Options

  1. A(x−1)2+(y−2)2=4{\left(x - 1\right)}^{2} + {\left(y - 2\right)}^{2} = 4
  2. B(x−1)2+(y+2)2=16{\left(x - 1\right)}^{2} + {\left(y + 2\right)}^{2} = 16
  3. C(x+1)2+(y−2)2=4{\left(x + 1\right)}^{2} + {\left(y - 2\right)}^{2} = 4
  4. D(x−1)2+(y−2)2=16{\left(x - 1\right)}^{2} + {\left(y - 2\right)}^{2} = 16

Correct answer

B. (x−1)2+(y+2)2=16{\left(x - 1\right)}^{2} + {\left(y + 2\right)}^{2} = 16

Step-by-step solution

Given,

L1=4x−3y+K1=0;L2=4x−3y+K2=0{L}_{1} = 4x - 3y + {K}_{1} = 0; {L}_{2} = 4x - 3y + {K}_{2} = 0

Here line L1andL2{L}_{1} and {L}_{2} are parallel.

So,

Let a circle C touch the lines L _ 1 : 4x - 3y + K _ 1 = 0 and L _ 2 : 4x - 3y + K _ 2 = 0, K _ 1 , K _ 2 ∈ R . If a

Now equation of circle will be (x−1)2+(y+2)2=42{\left(x - 1\right)}^{2} + {\left(y + 2\right)}^{2} = {4}^{2}
