The centre of the circle whose radius is 3 units and touching internally the circle x^2+y^2-4 x-6 y-12=0 at the point (-1,-1) is

Options

  1. A( 4 5 , 7 5 )
  2. B( 4 5 , -7 5 )
  3. C( -4 5 , -7 5 )
  4. D( -4 5 , 7 5 )

Correct answer

A. ( 4 5 , 7 5 )

Step-by-step solution

aligned PC ₁ & = (2+1)^2+(3+1)^2 & = 25 & =5 aligned P divides C₁ C₂ externally in the ratio r₁: r₂ i.e. 5: 3 -1= 5( ~h )-3(2) 5-3 and -1= 5( k )-3(3) 5-3 aligned & -2=5 ~h -6 and -2=5 k -9 & h = 4 5 and k = 7 5 aligned

A circle touches both the coordinate axes and the straight line L 4 x +3 y -6=0 in the first quadrant. If this circle lies below the line L =0 , then the equation of that circle is 2025If the smallest circle through the points of intersection of x^2+y^2=a^2 and x +y =p, 0 < p < a is x^2+y^2-a^2+ (x +y -p)=0 then = 2025If the lines 3 x-4 y+4=0 and 6 x-8 y-7=0 are the tangents to the same circle, then the area of that circle (in sq.units) is 2025Circles are drawn through the point (2,0) to cut intercepts of length 5 units on the X -axis.
