Match the column:

Column-I

Column-II

(i) If (α, β) is a point on circle whose

centre is on x axis which touches line y

= –x at (2, –2) then greatest value of α is

[A] 22

(ii) The sum of squares of length of

chords intercepted by line x + y = n, n  

N on circle x2 + y2 = 4

[B] 0 

(iii) If point (a, a) lies between lines

|x + y | = 6 then [ | a | ] is([ . ] denote

greatest integer)

[C] 1

(iv) No. of points from where

perpendicular tangents can be drawn on

[D] 4+ 2

[E]2

Text Solution

Verified by Experts
The correct answer is:
(i) [D]; (ii) [A]; (iii) [B]; (iv) [B]

Ans.

(i) [D]

(ii) [A]

(iii) [B],[C],[E]

(iv) [B]

Sol.

(i)

slope of line = –1

∴ ∠ COM = 45º

∴ OM =

So OC = 4

∴ So α will be maximum at point B

∴ α = 4 +

(ii)

Line will cut circle if

OM < 2 ....(i)

Now OM = ....(ii)

As n ∈ N so n = 1 and 2 can satisfy (i) and (ii)

Length AB = 2 AM =

AB 2 = = 16 – 2n 2 Required sum = (16 – 2) + (16 – 2.2)

2 = 22

(iii)

The point (a, a) lies on y = x

Solving it with x + y = 6

We get coordinates of A(3, 3)

Similarly coordinates of B(–3, –3)

∴ –3 < a < 3 {point lies between lines}

⇒ 0 ≤ | a | < 3

⇒ [ | a | ] = 0, 1, 2

(iv) Equation of director circle is

x 2 + y 2 = a 2 – b 2 (a > b)

here x 2 + y 2 = –1
