The centre of the circle inscribed in the square determined by the two pair of lines
x 2 – 8x + 12 = 0 and y 2 – 14y + 45 = 0
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
x 2 – 8x + 12 = 0 y 2 – 14y + 45 = 0
(x – 6)(x – 2) = 0 y 2 – 9y – 5y + 45 = 0
x = 6, x = 2, (y – 9)(y – 5) = 0
y = 9, y = 5
