The area of the circle passing through the points 5 , ± 2 , 1 , 2 is
Options
- A8 π
- B4 π
- C2 π
- D16 π
Correct answer
A. 8 π
Step-by-step solution
Plotting the diagram of given points we get, Now A B = 4 2 + 0 2 = 4 And A C = 4 2 + 4 2 = 4 2 And B C = 0 2 + 4 2 = 4 ∴ A B 2 + B C 2 = A C 2 as 16 + 16 = 32 ∴ It is right angled triangle. ∴ Diameter = A C or hypotenuse So, length of Diameter = 4 2 ∴ Radius = 2 2 Now area will be πr 2 = π 2 2 2 = 8 π
