Choose the correct or the most suitable answer from the given four alternatives.
Question 1.
The equation of the circle passing through (1,5) and (4, 1) and touching y-axis is x2 + y2 – 5x – 6y + 9 + λ (4x + 3y – 19) = 0 where λ is equal to …………
(a) 0, $$-\frac{40}{9}$$
(b) 0
(c) $$\frac{40}{9}$$
(d) $$-\frac{40}{9}$$
Solution:
(a) 0, $$-\frac{40}{9}$$
Hint:
x2 + y2 – 5x – 6y + 9 + λ (4x + 3y -19) = 0
ie., x2 + y2 + x(4λ – 5) + y(3λ – 6) + 9 — 19λ = 0
Since it touches y axis x = 0
⇒ y2 + y(3λ – 6) + 9 – 19λ = 0
It is a quadratic in y ,
Since the circle touches y axis the roots must be equal ⇒ b2 – 4ac = 0
ie.,(3λ – 6)2 – 4(1) (9 – 19λ) = 0
Solving we get λ = o or $$-\frac{40}{9}$$

Question 2.
The eccentricity of the hyperbola whose latus rectum is 8 and conjugate axis is equal to half the distance between the foci is ………..

Solution:
(c) $$\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}$$
Hint:
Given $$\frac{2 b^{2}}{a}$$ = 8 and 2b = ae

Question 3.
The circle x2 + y2 = 4x + 8y + 5 intersects the line 3x – 4y = m at two distinct points if …………..
(a) 15 < m < 65
(b) 35 < m < 85
(c) -85 < m < -35
(d) -35 < m < 15
Solution:
(d) -35 < m < 15
Hint:
x2 + y2 – 4x – 8y – 5 =0
3x – 4y = m Solving (1) and (2) we get
from (2) ⇒ 3x = 4y + m
x = $$\frac{4 y+m}{3}$$
Substituting x value in (1) we get
$$\left(\frac{4 y+m}{3}\right)^{2}$$ + y2 – $$4\left(\frac{4 y+m}{3}\right)$$ – 8y – 5 = 0
It is a quadratic in y and given that the roots are distinct
⇒ b2 – 4ac > 0
On simplifying we get
⇒ – 9m2 – 18w + 4725 >0 ⇒ m2 + 20m – 525 < 0
⇒ (m + 35) (m – 15) ≤ 0 ⇒ m lies between -35 and 15 ie„ – 35 < m < 15

Question 4.
The length of the diameter of the circle which touches the x -axis at the point (1,0) and passes through the point (2, 3) …………

Solution:
(c) $$\frac{10}{3}$$
Hint:
Since radius is ⊥ r to tangent it passes through the centre (1, y)
AC2 = CB2 ⇒ y2 = 1 + (y – 3)2
6y = 10 ⇒ y = $$\frac{5}{3}$$
Diameter 2y = $$\frac{10}{3}$$

Question 5.
The radius of the circle 3x2 + by2 + 4bx – 6by + b2 = 0 is ……………
(a) 1
(b) 3
(c) $$\sqrt{10}$$
(d) $$\sqrt{11}$$
Solution:
(c) $$\sqrt{10}$$
Hint:
Here b = 3
3x2 + 3y2 + 12x- 18y + 9 = 0
(÷ 3) zz> x2 + y2 + 4x – 6y + 3 = 0
Comparing with general form
g = 2,f = -3, c = 3
∴ radius = $$\sqrt{g^{2}+f^{2}-c}=\sqrt{4+9-3}=\sqrt{10}$$

Question 6.
The centre of the circle inscribed in a square formed by the lines x2 – 8x – 12 = 0 and y2 – 14y + 45 = 0 is ………..
(a) (4, 7)
(b) (7, 4)
(c) (9, 4)
(d) (4, 9)

Solution:
(a) (4, 7)
Hint:
(x – 6) (x – 2) = 0 ⇒ x = 2 or 6
(y – 9) (y – 5) = 0 ⇒ y = 5 or 9

Question 7.
The equation of the normal to the circle x2 + y2 – 2x – 2y + 1 = 0 which is parallel to the line 2x + 4y = 3 is …………..
(a) x + 2y = 3
(b) x + 2y + 3 = 3
(c) 2x + 4y + 3 = 0
(d) x – 2y + 3 = 0
Solution:
(a) x + 2y = 3
Hint:
Centre of the circle = (1, 1) and radius = r = 1
Normal is parallel to 2x + 4y = 3
So equation of normal will be the form 2x + 4y = k
It passes throug the centre (1, 1) ⇒ 2 + 4 = 6 = k
So equation of the normal is x + 4y = 6
(÷ by 2) x + 2y = 3

Question 8.
If P(x, y) be any point on 16x2 + 25y2 = 400 with foci F1(3, 0) and F2(- 3, 0) then PF1 + PF2 is
(a) 8
(b) 6
(c) 10
(d) 12
Solution:
(c) 10
Hint:
F1P + F2P = 2a
Here the equation is 16x2 + 25y2 = 400
(÷ by 400) ⇒ $$\frac{16 x^{2}}{400}+\frac{25 y^{2}}{400}$$ = 1 ⇒ $$\frac{x^{2}}{25}+\frac{y^{2}}{16}$$ = 1
a2 = 25 => a = 5
∴ 2a = 10

Question 9.
The radius of the circle passing through the point (6, 2) two of whose diameter are x + y = 6 and x + 2y = 4 is …………..
(a) 10
(b) $$2 \sqrt{5}$$
(c) 6
(d) 4
Solution:
(b) $$2 \sqrt{5}$$
Hint:
The point of intersection of the diameters is the centre.
Now solving x + y = 6 …………. (1)
x + 2y = 4 ………….. (2)
(1) – (2) ⇒ -y = 2 ⇒ y = -2
Substituting y = -6 in (1)
x – 2 = 6 ⇒ x = 8
Centre = (8, -2)
The circle passes through (6, 2)
∴ radius = $$\sqrt{(8-6)^{2}+(-2-2)^{2}}=\sqrt{4+16}$$
= $$\sqrt{20}=\sqrt{4 \times 5}=2 \sqrt{5}$$

Question 10.
The area of quadrilateral formed with foci of the hyperbolas $$\frac{x^{2}}{a^{2}}-\frac{y^{2}}{b^{2}}$$ = 1 and $$\frac{x^{2}}{a^{2}}-\frac{y^{2}}{b^{2}}$$ = -1 is ……………
(a) 4(a2 + b2)
(b) 2(a2 + b2)
(c) a2 + b2
(d) $$\frac{1}{2}$$(a2 + b2)
Solution:
(b) 2(a2 + b2)
Hint:
The foci are (± ae, 0) and (0, ± ae)

The above diagram is a rhombus.
Its area = $$\frac{1}{2}$$d1d2
= $$\frac{1}{2}$$ (2ae) (2ae) = 2a2 e2
But we know b2 = a2 (e2 – 1)
i.e., b2 = a2 e2 – a2
⇒ b2 + a2 = a2 e2
So area = 2(a2 + b2)

Question 11.
If the normals of the parabola y2 = 4x drawn at the end points of its latus rectum are tangents to the circle (x – 3)2 + (y + 2)2 = r2 , then the value of r2 is ………………..
(a) 2
(b) 3
(c) 1
(d) 4
Solution:
(a) 2
Hint:
The normals are x ± y = 3
Distance from (3, -2) on both normal is r
(i.e.,) r = $$\left|\frac{3-2-3}{\sqrt{2}}\right|=\sqrt{2}$$ ⇒ r2 = 2

Question 12.
If x + y = k is a normal to the parabola y2 = 12x, then the value of k is ……………
(a) 3
(b) -1
(c) 1
(d) 9
Solution:
(d) 9
Hint:
Slope of normal = -1 and Slope of tangent = -1
The condition for y = mx + c to be a tangent to the parabola
y2 = 4ax is c = $$\frac{a}{m}$$
Here the parabola is y2 = 12x ⇒ a = 3 and m = 1
∴ c = $$\frac{3}{1}$$ = 3
∴ Equation of tangent is y = x + 3
Solving the parabola and tangent we get the points (3, 6) and (3,-6)
∴ k = -3 or k = 9

Question 13.
The ellipse E1 : $$\frac{x^{2}}{9}+\frac{y^{2}}{4}$$ = 1 is inscribed in a rectangle R whose sides are parallel to the coordinate axes. Another ellipse E2 passing through the point (0, 4) circumscribes the rectangle R. The eccentricity of the ellipse is …………….

Solution:
(c) $$\frac{1}{2}$$
Hint:

Question 14.
Tangents are drawn to the hyperbola $$\frac{x^{2}}{9}-\frac{y^{2}}{4}$$ = 1 parallel to the straight line 2x – y = 1. One of the points of contact of tangents on the hyperbola is ……………

Solution:
(c) $$\left(\frac{9}{2 \sqrt{2}}, \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\right)$$
Hint:
The tangents are parallel to 2x – y = 1
So equation of tangents will be of the form
2x – y = k ⇒ y = 2x – k
Comparing this equation with y = mx + c we get m = 2 and c = -k
The given hyperbola is $$\frac{x^{2}}{9}-\frac{y^{2}}{4}$$ = 1
⇒ a2 = 9 and b2 = 4
Now the condition for the line y = mx + c to be a tangent to

Question 15.
The equation of the circle passing through the foci of the ellipse $$\frac{x^{2}}{16}-\frac{y^{2}}{9}$$ = 1 having centre at (0, 3) is ……………….
(a) x2 + y2 – 6y – 7 = 0
(b) x2 + y2 – 6y + 7 = 0
(c) x2 + y2 – 6y – 5 = 0
(d) x2 + y2 – 6y + 5 = 0
Solution:
(a) x2 + y2 – 6y – 7 = 0

The distance between centre and foci = radius of the circle
ie., r = $$\sqrt{(0 \pm \sqrt{7})^{2}+(3-0)^{2}}=\sqrt{7+9}=\sqrt{16}$$ = 4
Now Centre = (0, 3); r = 4
Equation of the circle is (x – 0)2 + (y -3)2 = 42
ie., x2 + y2 – 6y + 9 – 16 = 0
x2 + y2 – 6y – 7 = 0

Question 16.
Let C be the circle with centre at (1, 1) and radius = 1. If T is the circle centered at (0, y) passing through the origin and touching the circle C externally, then the radius of T is equal ……………..

Solution:
(d) $$\frac{1}{4}$$
Hint:
Equation of circle is x2 + y2 + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0
i.e., (1 + y2)2 = (1 – y)2 = 1
Solving we get y = $$\frac{1}{4}$$

Question 17.

Solution:
(b) $$\frac{1}{3}$$
Hint:
The given equation is of the form FP2 = e2PM2
i.e., (x – 3)2 + (y – 4)2 = $$\frac{1}{9}$$(y2)
⇒ e2 = $$\frac{1}{9}$$ ⇒ e = $$\frac{1}{3}$$

Question 21.

(a) 2x + 1 = 0
(b) x = -1
(c) 2x – 1 = 0
(d) x = 1

(a) (-5, 2)
(b) (2, -5)
(c) (5, -2)
(d) (-2, 5)
Solution:
(c) (5, -2)
Hint:

Let the centre be (3, h)
r = k
Equation of the circle is
(x – 3)2 + (y – h)2 = r2 = (k)2
It passes through (1, -2) ⇒ k2 = 8
Substituting (5, -2) the equation satisfies.

Question 23.

(a) 2
(b) 4
(c) 0
(d) -2
Solution:
(c) 0
Hint:

c2 = a2 m2 – b2
Here the given line is y = mx + 2 $$\sqrt{5}$$
⇒ m = m and c = 2$$\sqrt{5}$$
The condition is c2 = a2m2 – b2
ie., (2$$\sqrt{5}$$)2= 9(m2)- 16
⇒ 9m2 = 20 + 16 = 36 ⇒ m2 = 4
i.e., m = ± 2
a = 2, b = -2 (say)
So a + b = 2 – 2 = 0

(a) 9
(b) 16
(c) 18

Since it passes through (2, -6)
∴ (-6)2 = 4a(2)
⇒ 36 = 8a a = $$\frac{36}{8}=\frac{9}{2}$$
Length of the latus rectum = 4a = $$4\left(\frac{9}{2}\right)$$ = 18

(a) (6, -1)
(b) (-6, 4)

Given parabola is x2 + 12x – 9y = 0
⇒ (x2 + 12x + 36) – 36 – 9y = 0
⇒ (x + 6)2 = 9y + 36 ⇒ (x + 6)2 = 9 (y + 4)
∴ Vertex = (-6, -4)

Hint:
We have, 9x2 + 16y2 = 144
⇒ $$\frac{x^{2}}{16}+\frac{y^{2}}{9}$$ = 1 (Dividing both sides by 144)
Here a2 = 16, b2 = 9 ⇒ a = 4, b = 3
Length of major axis = 2a = 2(4) = 8
Since the sum of the focal distances from any point on the ellipse is equal to its major axis
∴ Required sum = 8
