Very Short Answer Type Questions :

1. The given equation is (x + 1)2 + (y + 3)2 = 16

i.e., [x – (–1)]2 + [y – (–3)]2 = (4)2

which is of the form (x – h)2 + (y – k)2 = r2

where, (h, k) = centre and r = radius

 The centre and radius of the given circle are (–1, –3) and 4 units respectively.
y
2. It is given that the circle is touching both the axes.

 h=k=r

where (h, k) = centre and r = radius 2 (2, 2)

We are given that h = 2 2


x
 k = 2 and r = 2 (0, 0)

 Required radius = 2 units and ordinate of the centre = 2.

3. Let the equation of the circle be (x – h)2 + (y – k)2 = r2

where (h, k) = centre and r = radius

8
 The required equation of the circle with centre at (2, 3) and radius 4 units (half of diameter i.e.,  4 ) is
2
(x – 2)2 + (y – 3)2 = (4)2

i.e., x2 + y2 – 4x – 6y – 3 = 0

4. The given equation is (x – 1)2 + (y + 2)2 = 4

or, [x – 1]2 + [y – (–2)]2 = (2)2

which is of the form (x – h)2 + (y – k)2 = r2, where h = 1, k = –2 and r = 2

Thus the centre of the given circle is (1, –2) while its radius is 2 units.

Short Answer Type Questions :


6. Let the required equation of the circle be (x – h)2 + (y – k)2 = (r)2
Since the circle passes through the points (0, 0), (3, 0) and (0, 4),
we have,
(0 – h)2 + (0 – k)2 = r 2
(3 – h)2 + (0 – k)2 = r 2
(0 – h)2 + (4 – k)2 = r 2
 h2 + k2 = r 2 ... (i)
h2 + k2 – 6h + 9 = r 2 ... (ii)
and h2 + k2 + 16 – 8k = r2 ... (iii)
On putting the value of (i) in (ii) and (iii), we get
r2 – 6h + 9 = r2 and r2 + 16 – 8k = r2
 6h = 9 and 8k = 16

7. The circle with centre (–2, –3) is touching the y-axis i.e., the line whose
equation is x = 0. (0, 0)
x
 x = 0 is tangent to the required circle.
(–2, –3)
Thus, the perpendicular distance of y-axis from the centre i.e., (–2, –3) = radius
 Radius = 2 units
 The required equation of the circle with centre (–2, –3) and radius 2 is
[x – (–2)]2 + [y – (–3)]2 = (2)2
i.e., (x + 2)2 + (y + 3)2 = (2)2 –y

It is given that the circle makes intercepts 6 and 8 on the positive side of the co-ordinate axes respectively.
This means that the circle passes through (6, 0) and (0, 8).

14. Let the required equation of the circle be (x – h)2 + (y – k)2 = r2
where, (h, k) = centre and r = radius.
As per the given information, h + k = 5 [∵ Centre lies on the line x + y = 5] and the point (3, 2) and (1, 4)
lie on the circle.
 (3 – h)2 + (2 – k)2 = r2,
(1 – h)2 + (4 – k)2 = r2
i.e., h2 + k2 – 6h – 4k + 13 = r2 ... (i)
h2 + k2 – 2h – 8k + 17 = r2 ... (ii)
Equating (i) and (ii), we get
–6h – 4k + 13 = –2h – 8k + 17
 –4h + 4k – 4 = 0
 h–k+1=0 ... (iii)

Also, h + k = 5
i.e., h + k – 5 = 0 ... (iv)
Adding equations (iii) and (iv), we get
2h – 4 = 0
 h=2
 k = 3
 (3 – 2)2 + (2 – 3)2 = r2 [∵ r2 = (3 – h)2 + (2 – k)2]
 r2 = 2
 The required equation of the circle is (x – 2)2 + (y – 3)2 = 2.
15. It is given that the vertices of OAB are the vertex and the ends of the latus rectum of the parabola
y2 = 8x.
Now, y2 = 8x is of the form y2 = 4ax, where 4a = 8  a = 2 units 2
y = 8x
We know that AF = BF = 4 units and OF = 2 units A
 The co-ordinates of the point A and B are (2, 4) and (2, –4) respectively.
In OAF, we have O F
(0, 0) (2, 0)
(OA)2 = (OF)2 + (AF)2
= (2)2 + (4)2 = 20
B
 OA  2 5 units

Since the given parabola is symmetric about x-axis, therefore OA = OB  2 5 units

 Perimeter of OAB = (2 5  2 5  8)

= 84 5

= 4(2  5) units

16. Let the equation of the circle be (x – h)2 + (y – k)2 = r2 ... (i)
where (h, k) = centre and r = radius
It is given that r = 4 units
Thus equation (i) reduces to (x – h)2 + (y – k)2 = 16
Also, (h, k) lies on y = 3
 k = 3
Since the circle passes through the point (6, 3), we have
(6 – h)2 + (3 – k)2 = 16
Since k = 3, the above equation reduces to (6 – h)2 = 16
 h2 + 36 – 12h – 16 = 0
 h2 – 12h + 20 = 0
 (h – 2) (h – 10) = 0

Now, in right OCA,
(OC)2 + (CA)2 = (OA)2 ... (2)

| 3(1)  2(1)  8 |
and OC  [Perpendicular distance of the line x + y = 8 from the centre i.e., (3, 2)]

 OC = …(3)

From (1), (2) and (3), we get

9 9
  (OA)2
2 2

 OA = 3 units = radius of the circle


Centre = (3, 2)
Thus the required equation of the circle is (x – 3)2 + (y – 2)2 = (3)2

 ( x 2  9  6 x )  ( y 2  4  4y )  9

 x2 + y2 – 6x – 4y + 4 = 0
18. It is given that the lines 2x + y – 6 = 0 and 4x – 5y + 16 = 0 are the diameters of a circle.
The point of intersection of these two lines will give the centre of the circle.
Solving the above equations, we get x = 1 and y = 4
Thus (1, 4) = centre of the circle
It is given that r2 = 154

 r2 = 49
 r=7
 The required equation of the circle is (x – 1)2 + (y – 4)2 = (7)2
19. Let the equation of the required circle be (x – h)2 + (y – k)2 = r2
Since the circle passes through the points (2, –3), (–6, –3) and (–2, 1)
We have,
(2 – h)2 + (–3 – k)2 = r2 ... (i)
(–6 – h)2 + (–3 – k)2 = r2 ... (ii)
(–2 – h)2 + (1 – k)2 = r2 ... (iii)
Equating (i) and (ii), we get
(2 – h)2 + (–3 – k)2 = (–6 – h)2 + (–3 – k)2
 (2 – h)2 = (6 + h)2
 (2 – h)2 – (6 + h)2 = 0
 (2 – h + 6 + h) (2 – h – 6 – h) = 0
 8(–2h – 4) = 0
 h = –2
Equating (i) and (iii), we get
(2 – h)2 + (–3 – k)2 = (–2 – h)2 + (1 – k)2
Putting h = –2 in the above equation, we get
16 + (3 + k)2 = (1 – k)2
 16 + (9 + k2 + 6k) – (1 + k2 – 2k) = 0
 (16 + 9 – 1) + (k2 – k2) + (6k + 2k) = 0
 24 + 8k = 0
 k = –3
Putting, the values of h and k in (i), we get
[2 – (–2)]2 + [–3 – (–3)]2 = r2
 r2 = 16 + 0
 r=4
Therefore, equation of the required circle is
[x – (–2)]2 + [y – (–3)]2 = (4)2
 (x + 2)2 + (y + 3)2 = (4)2
