JEE Main & Advanced Mathematics Circle and System of Circles Question Bank System of circles

  • question_answer
    The equation of the circle through the point of intersection of the circles \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}-8x-2y+7=0\], \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}-4x+10y+8=0\] and  (3, -3) is 

    A)            \[23{{x}^{2}}+23{{y}^{2}}-156x+38y+168=0\]

    B)            \[23{{x}^{2}}+23{{y}^{2}}+156x+38y+168=0\]

    C)            \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}+156x+38y+168=0\]

    D)            None of these

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

               Equation of circle is                    \[({{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}-8x-2y+7)+\lambda ({{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}-4x+10y+8)=0\]            Also point \[(3,\ -3)\] lies on the above equation.                    \[\Rightarrow \lambda =\frac{7}{16}\]                    Hence required equation is                    \[23{{x}^{2}}+23{{y}^{2}}-156x+38y+168=0\].
