Q61
Choose the incorrect statement about the two circles whose equations are given below : x2 + y2 - 10x - 10y + 41 = 0 and x2 + y2 - 16x - 10y + 80 = 0
A Distance between two centres is the average of radii of both the circles.
B Both circles pass through the centre of each other.
C Circles have two intersection points.
D Both circle's centers lie inside region of one another.
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

S1 \equiv x2 + y2 - 10x - 10y + 41 = 0 Centre C1 \equiv (5, 5), radius r1 = 3 S2 \equiv x2 + y2 - 16x - 10y + 80 = 0 Centre C2 \equiv (8, 5), radius r2 = 3 Distance between centres = 3 Hence both circles pass through the centre of each other, have two intersection point and distance between two centres in average of radii of both the circles.

Hence, option (d) is the incorrect statement.

Q62
Let the tangent to the circle x2 + y2 = 25 at the point R(3, 4) meet x-axis and y-axis at points P and Q, respectively. If r is the radius of the circle passing through the origin O and having centre at the incentre of the triangle OPQ, then r2 is equal to :
A 58566{{585} \over {66}}
B 62572{{625} \over {72}}
C 52964{{529} \over {64}}
D 12572{{125} \over {72}}
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

Given equation of circle x2 + y2 = 25 \therefore Tangent equation at (3, 4) T : 3x + 4y = 25 Incentre of

Δ\Delta

OPQ.

I=(254×253253+254+12512,253×254253+254+12512)I = \left( {{{{{25} \over 4} \times {{25} \over 3}} \over {{{25} \over 3} + {{25} \over 4} + {{125} \over {12}}}},{{{{25} \over 3} \times {{25} \over 4}} \over {{{25} \over 3} + {{25} \over 4} + {{125} \over {12}}}}} \right)

\therefore

I=(62575+100+125,62575+100+125)=(2512,2512)I = \left( {{{625} \over {75 + 100 + 125}},{{625} \over {75 + 100 + 125}}} \right) = \left( {{{25} \over {12}},{{25} \over {12}}} \right)

\because Distance from origin to incenter is r. \therefore

r2=(2512)2+(2512)2=62572{r^2} = {\left( {{{25} \over {12}}} \right)^2} + {\left( {{{25} \over {12}}} \right)^2} = {{625} \over {72}}

Therefore, the correct answer is (B).

Q63
Two tangents are drawn from a point P to the circle x2 + y2 - 2x - 4y + 4 = 0, such that the angle between these tangents is tan1(125){\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {{{12} \over 5}} \right), where tan1(125){\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {{{12} \over 5}} \right) \in(0, π\pi). If the centre of the circle is denoted by C and these tangents touch the circle at points A and B, then the ratio of the areas of Δ\DeltaPAB and Δ\DeltaCAB is :
A 3 : 1
B 9 : 4
C 2 : 1
D 11 : 4
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

Let θ\theta = tan-1

(125)\left( {{{12} \over 5}} \right)

\Rightarrow tanθ\theta =

125{{{12} \over 5}}

\Rightarrow

2tanθ21tan2θ2=125{{2\tan {\theta \over 2}} \over {1 - {{\tan }^2}{\theta \over 2}}} = {{12} \over 5}
tanθ2=23\Rightarrow \tan {\theta \over 2} = {2 \over 3}
sinθ2=23\Rightarrow \sin {\theta \over 2} = {2 \over {\sqrt 3 }}

and

cosθ2=313\cos {\theta \over 2} = {3 \over {\sqrt {13} }}

In

Δ\Delta

CAP,

tanθ2=1AP\tan {\theta \over 2} = {1 \over {AP}}
AP=32\Rightarrow AP = {3 \over 2}

In

Δ\Delta

APM,

sinθ2=AMAP,cosθ2=PMAP\sin {\theta \over 2} = {{AM} \over {AP}},\cos {\theta \over 2} = {{PM} \over {AP}}
AM=313\Rightarrow AM = {3 \over {\sqrt {13} }}
PM=9213\Rightarrow PM = {9 \over {2\sqrt {13} }}

\therefore

AB=613AB = {6 \over {\sqrt {13} }}

\therefore Area of

ΔPAB=12×AB×PM\Delta PAB = {1 \over 2} \times AB \times PM
=12×613×9213=2716= {1 \over 2} \times {6 \over {\sqrt {13} }} \times {9 \over {2\sqrt {13} }} = {{27} \over {16}}

Now,

ϕ=90θ2\phi = 90^\circ - {\theta \over 2}

In

Δ\Delta

CAM,

cosϕ=CMCA\cos \phi = {{CM} \over {CA}}
CM=1.cos(π2θ2)\Rightarrow CM = 1.\cos \left( {{\pi \over 2} - {\theta \over 2}} \right)
=1.sinθ2=213= 1.\sin {\theta \over 2} = {2 \over {\sqrt {13} }}

\therefore Area of

ΔCAB=12×AB×CM\Delta CAB = {1 \over 2} \times AB \times CM
=12×613×213=613= {1 \over 2} \times {6 \over {\sqrt {13} }} \times {2 \over {\sqrt {13} }} = {6 \over {13}}

\therefore

AreaofΔPABAreaofΔCAB=27/266/13=94{{Area\,of\,\Delta PAB} \over {Area\,of\,\Delta CAB}} = {{27/26} \over {6/13}} = {9 \over 4}

Therefore, the correct answer is (2).

Q64
Choose the correct statement about two circles whose equations are given below : x2 + y2 - 10x - 10y + 41 = 0 x2 + y2 - 22x - 10y + 137 = 0
A circles have same centre
B circles have no meeting point
C circles have only one meeting point
D circles have two meeting points
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

Let

S1:x2+y210x10y+41=0{S_1}:{x^2} + {y^2} - 10x - 10y + 41 = 0
(x5)2+(y5)2=9\Rightarrow {(x - 5)^2} + {(y - 5)^2} = 9

Centre

(C1)=(5,5)({C_1}) = (5,5)

Radius r1 = 3

S2:x2+y222x10y+137=0{S_2}:{x^2} + {y^2} - 22x - 10y + 137 = 0
(x11)2+(y5)2=9\Rightarrow {(x - 11)^2} + {(y - 5)^2} = 9

Centre

(C2)=(11,5)({C_2}) = (11,5)

Radius r2 = 3 distance

(C1C2)=(511)2+(55)2({C_1}{C_2}) = \sqrt {{{(5 - 11)}^2} + {{(5 - 5)}^2}}

distance

(C1C2)=6({C_1}{C_2}) = 6

\because

r1+r2=3+3=6{r_1} + {r_2} = 3 + 3 = 6

\therefore circles touch externally Hence, circle have only one meeting point.

Q65
Let S1 : x2 + y2 = 9 and S2 : (x - 2)2 + y2 = 1. Then the locus of center of a variable circle S which touches S1 internally and S2 externally always passes through the points :
A (12,±52)\left( {{1 \over 2}, \pm {{\sqrt 5 } \over 2}} \right)
B (1, ±\pm 2)
C (2,±32)\left( {2, \pm {3 \over 2}} \right)
D (0, ±\pm 3\sqrt 3 )
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

S1 : x2 + y2 = 9 ; C1 (0, 0), r1 = 3 S2 : (x - 2)2 + y2 = 1 ; C2 (2, 0), r2 = 1 Image Let the variable circle S and its radius is r units.

Here S and S1 touches internally \therefore Distance between center, S + S1 = PC1 = 3 - r Here S and S2 touches externally \therefore Distance between center, S + S2 = PC2 = 1 + r \therefore PC1 + PC2 = 4 > C1 C2 So locus is ellipse whose focii are C1 & C2 and major axis is 2a = 4 and 2ae = C1C2 = 2 \Rightarrow

e=12e = {1 \over 2}

\Rightarrow

b2=4(114)=3{b^2} = 4\left( {1 - {1 \over 4}} \right) = 3

Centre of ellipse is midpoint of C1 & C2 is (1, 0) Equation of ellipse is

(x1)222+y2(3)2=1{{{{(x - 1)}^2}} \over {{2^2}}} + {{{y^2}} \over {{{\left( {\sqrt 3 } \right)}^2}}} = 1

Now by cross checking the option

(2,±32)\left( {2, \pm {3 \over 2}} \right)

satisfied it.

Q66
Let r1 and r2 be the radii of the largest and smallest circles, respectively, which pass through the point (-4, 1) and having their centres on the circumference of the circle x2 + y2 + 2x + 4y - 4 = 0. If r1r2=a+b2{{{r_1}} \over {{r_2}}} = a + b\sqrt 2 , then a + b is equal to :
A 3
B 11
C 5
D 7
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

Centre of smallest circle is A Centre of largest circle is B

r2=CPCA=323{r_2} = |CP - CA| = 3\sqrt 2 - 3
r1=CPCB=32+3{r_1} = CP - CB = 3\sqrt 2 + 3
r1r2=32+3323=(32+3)29=(2+1)2=3+22{{{r_1}} \over {{r_2}}} = {{3\sqrt 2 + 3} \over {3\sqrt 2 - 3}} = {{{{(3\sqrt 2 + 3)}^2}} \over 9} = {(\sqrt 2 + 1)^2} = 3 + 2\sqrt 2

a = 3, b = 2

Q67
Let the circle S : 36x2 + 36y2 - 108x + 120y + C = 0 be such that it neither intersects nor touches the co-ordinate axes. If the point of intersection of the lines, x - 2y = 4 and 2x - y = 5 lies inside the circle S, then :
A 259<C<133{{25} \over 9} < C < {{13} \over 3}
B 100 < C < 165
C 81 < C < 156
D 100 < C < 156
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

S : 36x2 + 36y2 - 108x + 120y + C = 0 \Rightarrow x2 + y2 - 3x +

103{{10} \over 3}

y +

= 0 Centre

(g,f)(32,106)\equiv ( - g, - f) \equiv \left( {{3 \over 2},{{ - 10} \over 6}} \right)

radius =

r=94+10036C36r = \sqrt {{9 \over 4} + {{100} \over {36}} - {C \over {36}}}

Now,

r<32\Rightarrow r < {3 \over 2}
94+10036C36<94\Rightarrow {9 \over 4} + {{100} \over {36}} - {C \over {36}} < {9 \over 4}

\Rightarrow C > 100 ......

(1) Now, point of intersection of x - 2y = 4 and 2x - y = 5 is (2, -1), which lies inside the circle S.

\therefore S(2, -1) < 0 \Rightarrow (2)2 + (-1)2 - 3(2) +
