JEE Main2003MathematicsThree Dimensional GeometryActual
The radius of the circle in which the sphere x^2+y^2+z^2+2 x-2 y-4 z-19=0 is cut by the plane x+2 y+2 z+7=0 is
Options
- A4
- B1
- C2
- D3
Correct answer
D. 3
Step-by-step solution
centre of sphere =(-1,1,2) Radius of sphere 1+1+4+19 =5 Perpendicular distance from centre to the plane OC = d = | -1+2+4+7 1+4+4 |= 12 3 =4 AC ^2= AO ^2- OC ^2=5^2-4^2=9 AC =3
