Let equation of circle, x2 + y2 + 2x – 1 = 0 ...(1)

& line x – y + c = 0 ...(2)
∵ points of intersection of line & circle is one
∴ Line touches the circles
& by condition of tangency = P = r

⇒ |c – 1| = 2
∴ c = 3 or c = – 1
{rejected}

59) For internal point P(2, 8),

4 + 64 – 4 + 32 – p < 0 ⇒ p > 96 ....(1)
and x intercept =
therefore 1 + p < 0 ⇒ p < –1 .....(2)
and y intercept = ⇒ p<–4 .....(3)
(1) ∩ (2) ∩ (3) gives p ∈ ϕ

60) Centre of circles are opposite side of line

(3 + 4 – λ) (27 + 4 – λ) < 0
(l – 7) (λ – 31) < 0
l ∈ (7, 31)
distance from S1

⇒ λ∈(–∞, 2) ∪ (12,∞)
distance from S2

Þ λ∈ (–∞, 21) ∪ (41, ∞)

so λ∈ (12, 21)

61) Let,

⇒
∴
⇒ a + b + c = 17 + 3 + 2 = 22

62) xy (x – 2y – 4) = 0

Sum = =
so, a = 3 & b = 2

64)
65) The circles are with centers (2, 0) and (–2, 0) and radius 4.

Therefore, the y-axis is their common chord.

ΔABC is equilateral. Hence

Area of ADBC =

66) Centre of circle is and radius

So distance of tangent to the circle from origin

67)

68) Common chords will pass through the centre of the respective
circles. pass through pass through (2, –1).
pass through (–1, 3)

on solving,

69) Only possibility

∴ equation of circle
Image of circle in x + y + 2 = 0 is

Given circle is

Thus, the number of integral points inside the circle

=45

73)

Gradient = slope = 2
Equation of line is
y – 7 = 2(x – 1)
y – 7 = 2x – 2
2x – y + 5 = 0
 Slope of CP =
Slope of line = 2

2 = –1
⇒ 2b + 12 = –a – 8
⇒ a + 2b + 20 = 0 ....(1)
(a, b) lies on line so
2a – b + 5 = 0 .....(2)
Solving (1) and (2) a = –6, b = –7
By distance formula

CQ = = radius

5 = 100 – c
c = 95
7a + 7b + c
= 7(–6) + 7(–7) + 95
= –42 – 49 + 95
= –91 + 95
=4

Centre of smallest circle is A
Centre of largest circle is B
= |CP – CA| =

a = 3, b = 2
