Question: The equation of circle whose centre lies on $ 3x-y-4=0 $ and $ x+3y+2=0 $ and has an area 154 square units is

[DCE 2001]

Options:

A) $ x^{2}+y^{2}-2x+2y-47=0 $

B) $ x^{2}+y^{2}-2x+2y+47=0 $

C) $ x^{2}+y^{2}+2x-2y-47=0 $

D) None of these

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

Centre is $ (1,,-1) $ (point of intersection of two given lines) and $ \pi r^{2}=154\Rightarrow ,r=7 $

$ \therefore $ Equation of required circle is $ {{(x-1)}^{2}},+{{(y+1)}^{2}}=49 $

$ \Rightarrow , $ $ x^{2}+y^{2}-2x+2y-47=0. $
