  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    A circle of radius $$\sqrt 8$$ is passing through origin and the point $$(4, 0)$$. If the centre lies on the line $$y = x$$, then the equation of the circle is
    Solution
    Let the equation of the circle be $$(x-a)^2 + (y-a)^2 = 8 \quad [\because \,\, \text{Centre lies on } x =y \,\, \text{and radius is } \sqrt{8}]$$

    Both $$(0,0)$$ and $$(4,0)$$ lies of the circle, therefore we have the below 2 equations

    $$a^2+a^2 = 8 \implies a= \pm 2$$

    $$(4-a)^2+a^2 = 8 \implies a^2-4a +4 = 0 \implies (a-2)^2 = 0 \implies a = 2$$

    $$\therefore, \,\, a = 2$$ and the required equation is $$(x-2)^2 +(y-2)^2= 8$$
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    The equation of the circle having $$x-y-2=0$$ and $$x-y+2=0$$ as two tangents and $$x-y=0$$ as diameter is
    Solution
    Since, the equations of tangents $$x-y-2=0$$ and $$x-y+2=0$$ are parallel.
    Therefore, distance between them $$=$$ Diameter of the circle
    $$=\dfrac { \left| 2-\left( -2 \right)  \right|  }{ \sqrt { { 1 }^{ 2 }+{ 1 }^{ 2 } }  }$$             $$\left( \because \dfrac { { C }_{ 2 }-{ C }_{ 1 } }{ \sqrt { { a }^{ 2 }+{ b }^{ 2 } }  }  \right) $$
    $$=\dfrac { 4 }{ \sqrt { 2 }  } =2\sqrt { 2 } $$
    Hence, radius $$=\dfrac { 1 }{ 2 } \left( 2\sqrt { 2 }  \right) =\sqrt { 2 } $$
    It is clear from the figure that centre lies on the origin.
    Therefore, equation of circle is $${ \left( x-0 \right)  }^{ 2 }+{ \left( y-0 \right)  }^{ 2 }={ \left( \sqrt { 2 }  \right)  }^{ 2 }$$.
    $$\Rightarrow { x }^{ 2 }+{ y }^{ 2 }=2$$
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    The lines $$y=x+\sqrt { 2 } $$ and $$y=x-2\sqrt { 2 } $$ are the tangent of certain circle. If the point $$\left( 0,\sqrt { 2 }  \right) $$ lies on this circle, then its equation is
    Solution
    Both tangents are parallel to each other, Therefore the distance between these two lines is the diameter of the circle.
    diameter $$=\dfrac{3\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}}=3$$
    Radius is =$$\dfrac{3}{2}$$
    If $$(x_1, y_1)$$ is the centre of the circle, Then

    $$\dfrac{x_1-0}{1}=\dfrac{y_1-\sqrt{2}}{-1}=\dfrac{1}{2}\dfrac{|0-\sqrt{2}-2\sqrt{2}|}{2}$$

    Centre is $$\bigl(\dfrac{3}{2\sqrt{2}}, \dfrac{1}{2\sqrt{2}}\Bigr)$$
    Equation of the circle is $$(x-\frac{1}{3\sqrt{2}})^2+(y-\frac{1}{2\sqrt{2}})^2=9/4$$
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    The lines $$2x-3y=5$$ and $$3x-4y=7$$ are the diameters of a circle of area $$154$$ sq.units. The equation of the circle is
    Solution
    Given equation of lines is $$2x-3y=5$$ ..... (i) and $$3x-4y=7$$ .....(ii)
    Solving above equations, we get the point of intersection as $$(1,-1)$$.
    Eqns (i) and (ii) are diameters of the circle.
    We know that the centre of circle $$=$$ point of intersection of diameters $$=(1,-1)$$.
    Now, it is given that the area of the circle $$=154$$.
    $$\pi {r}^{2}=154$$
    $$\Rightarrow  r=7$$
    Hence, the equation of required circle is
    $${(x-1)}^{2}+{(y+1)}^{2}={7}^{2}$$
    $$\Rightarrow$$ $${x}^{2}+{y}^{2}-2x+2y=47$$
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    The equation of the circle which touches the lines $$x = 0, y = 0$$ and $$4x + 3y = 12$$ is
    Solution
    Let the radius of the circle be $$r$$.

    Since, circle touches the lines $$x = 0, y = 0$$, i.e.,

    $$x$$-axis and $$y$$-axis, then its centre is $$C\equiv (r, r)$$

    Now, $$\text{radius} (PC) =$$ Perpendicular distance from $$(C)$$ to the line 

    $$4x + 3y = 12$$

    i.e., $$r = \dfrac {|4r + 3r - 12|}{\sqrt {16 + 9}}$$

    $$\Rightarrow 7r - 12 = \pm 5r$$

    So, $$r = 1$$ or $$6$$

    But $$r\neq 6$$

    Required equation of circle is

    $$(x - 1)^{2} + (y - 1)^{2} = 1$$

    $$\Rightarrow x^{2} + 1 - 2x + y^{2} + 1 - 2y = 1$$


    $$\Rightarrow x^{2} + y^{2} - 2x - 2y + 1 = 0$$

  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    The radius of the circle passing through the points $$(2,3),(2,7)$$ and $$(5,3)$$ is
    Solution
    Let the given points $$A(2,3),B(5,3)$$ and $$C(2,7)$$
    Diameters of circle is distance between $$B(5,3)$$ and $$C(2,7)$$
    $$d=\sqrt { { (2-5) }^{ 2 }+{ (7-3) }^{ 2 } } =\sqrt { 9+16 } $$
    $$d=\sqrt { 25 } =5$$
    $$\therefore$$ Radius $$=\cfrac { d }{ 2 } =\cfrac { 5 }{ 2 } $$

  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    The equation of the circumcircle of the triangle formed by the lines $$y + \sqrt{3} x = 6, y - \sqrt{3} x = 6$$ and $$y=0$$ is 
    Solution
    Triangle $$ABC$$ is an equilateral triangle
    Hence,
    $$BC=4\sqrt{3} \\ 2R=\cfrac{a}{\sin A} \\ 2R=\cfrac{4\sqrt{3}}{\sin 60^o}=8 \\ R=4$$
    Circumcentre of $$ABC$$ $$\left( \cfrac{x_1+x_2+x_3}{3},\cfrac{y_1+y_2+y_3}{3} \right) \\ =(0,2) $$
    Equation of circumcircle
    $$(x-0)^2+(y-2)^2=4^2 \\ x^2+y^2-4y=12$$

  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    The equation of the circle whose two diameters are the lines $$x+y=4$$ and $$x-y=2$$ and which passes through $$(4 , 6 )$$ is 
    Solution
    Two diameters are the lines,
    $$x+y=4$$              ----- ( 1 )
    $$x-y=2$$              ----- ( 2 )

    So, first, we find the intersection point of diameters that is the center of the circle.
    Adding equation ( 1 ) and ( 2 ) we get,
    $$\Rightarrow$$  $$2x=6$$
    $$\Rightarrow$$  $$x=3$$

    Substituting value of $$x$$ in equation ( 1 ),
    $$\Rightarrow$$  $$3+y=4$$
    $$\Rightarrow$$  $$y=1$$

    So, the center of circle is $$(3,1).$$
    Now, circle is pass through $$(4,6)$$
    The equation of circle is $$(x-a)^2+(y-b)=r^2$$, where $$(a,b)$$ co-ordinates of circle and $$r$$ is radius.

    Put center coordinates and pass through point
    $$\Rightarrow$$  $$(4-3)^2+(6-1)^2=r^2$$
    $$\Rightarrow$$  $$1+25=r^2$$
    $$\Rightarrow$$  $$r^2=26$$

    So, the equation of circle is,
    $$\Rightarrow$$  $$(x-3)^2+(y-1)^2=26$$
    $$\Rightarrow$$  $$x^2-6x+9+y^2-2y+1=26$$
    $$\Rightarrow$$  $$x^2+y^2-6x-2y-16=0$$
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    If the lines $$3x - 4y - 7 = 0$$ and $$2s - 3y - 5 = 0$$ are two diameters of a circle of area $$49\pi$$ square units, the equation of the circle is-
    Solution
    Given: Area  of  circle=$$49\pi \ sq.units$$

    $$\therefore$$ Area  of  circle=$$\pi \ r^2= 49\pi \ sq.units$$
    where, $$r$$ is the radius of the circle
    $$\pi \ r^2= 49\pi$$
    $$r^2= 49$$
    $$r= 7 \ units$$

    Given eqs of lines are, $$3x-4y-7=0$$ and $$2x-3y-5=0$$

    Solving the equations, we get $$x=1 \ , \  y=-1$$

    The points of intersection of the lines is the center of the circle i.e., $$(1,-1)$$

    We have the eqn for the circle with center $$(a,b)$$ and radius $$r$$,

    $$(x-a)^2+(y-b)^2=(r)^2$$
    $$(x-1)^2+(y+1)^2=(7)^2$$
    $$(x^2+1-2x)+(y^2+1+2y)=49$$
    $$x^2+y^2+2-2x+2y=49$$
    $$x^2+y^2-2x+2y=49-2$$

    $$\therefore$$ The equation of the given circle is,

    $$x^2+y^2-2x+2y-47=0$$
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    The equation of the circle passing through $$(2,0)$$ and $$(0,4)$$ and having the minimum radius is
    Solution
    Given points are $$(2,0)$$ and $$(0,4)$$

    Therefore, equation of circle is $$(x-2)(x-0)+(y-0)(y-4)=0$$

    By expanding, we get

    $$x^{2}-2x+y^{2}-4y=0$$

    Option B is correct.
