Ans. 3
Q. The circle passing through the point (–1,0) and touching the y-axis at (0,2) also passes through the point –
(A) $\left(-\frac{3}{2}, 0\right)$
(B) $\left(-\frac{5}{2}, 2\right)$
(C) $\left(-\frac{3}{2}, \frac{5}{2}\right)$
(D) (–4,0)
[JEE 2011, 3M, –1M]
Ans. (D)
Family of circle which touches $y$ -axis at $(0,2)$ is
$x^{2}+(y-2)^{2}+\lambda x=0$
Passing through $(-1,0)$
$\Rightarrow 1+4-\lambda=0 \quad \Rightarrow \quad \lambda=5$

$\quad$ which satisfy the point $(-4,0)$

Q. A possible equation of L is
(A) $x-\sqrt{3} y=1$
(B) $x+\sqrt{3} y=1$
(C) $x-\sqrt{3} y=-1$
(D) $x+\sqrt{3} y=5$
[JEE 2012, 3M, –1M]
Ans. (A)
Equation of tangent at $P$ will be $\sqrt{3} x+y=4$
Slope of line L will be $\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$
Let equation of $\mathrm{L}$ be $: y=\frac{\mathrm{x}}{\sqrt{3}}+\mathrm{c}$
$\Rightarrow \quad x-\sqrt{3} y+\sqrt{3} c=0$
Now this $L$ is tangent to $2^{\text {nd }}$ circle
So $\frac{3+\sqrt{3} c}{2}=\pm 1 \quad \Rightarrow \quad c=-\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$
or $c=-\frac{5}{\sqrt{3}}$
using $\quad c=-\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$
$y=\frac{x}{\sqrt{3}}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \Rightarrow x-\sqrt{3} y=1 .$ Hence $(\mathrm{A})$
Q. Circle(s) touching x-axis at a distance 3 from the origin and having an intercept of length $2 \sqrt{7}$ or y-axis is (are)
(A) $x^{2}+y^{2}-6 x+8 y+9=0$
(B) $x^{2}+y^{2}-6 x+7 y+9=0$
(C) $\mathrm{x}^{2}+\mathrm{y}^{2}-6 \mathrm{x}-8 \mathrm{y}+9=0$
(D) $x^{2}+y^{2}-6 x-7 y+9=0$
