    If the centre of a circle is \[(3,5)\] and end points of a diameter are \[(4,7)\]and \[(2,y),\] then the value of y is:    (CBSE 2020)

    A) 3

    B) \[-3\]

    C) 7

    D) 4

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a] We know that, mid-point of the diameter of the circle is centre of the circle.
    \[\therefore \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,(3,5)=\left\{ \frac{4+2}{2},\frac{7+y}{2} \right\}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,(3,5)=\left\{ 3,\frac{7+y}{2} \right\}\]
    On comparing, we get
    \[5=\frac{7+y}{2}\,\,\,\,\Rightarrow \,\,\,y=10-7=3\]
