Match the column:

Column-I

Column-II

(i)         P, Q lie on the axis and R, S lie on the

y-axis. Maximum number of parabola that

can be drawn through these points is

[A] 3

(ii) From a point on the    radical axis of

Circles S1  x2 + y2 + 4x – 6y – 12 = 0,

S2  x2 + y2 – 6y – 16 = 0 tangents are

drawn to S2. Chord of contact passes

through (–25, α2), then [α] can be

[B] -3 

(iii) If (α, β) be the foot of normal drawn

from the point (6, 2) on the parabola

y2 = 4x, then roots of equation x2 = β(α – 4)

is/are.

[C] 2

(iv) A variable circle whose centre lie on

y2 – 36 = 0 cuts rectangular hyperbola

xy = 16 at ,    i = 1, 2, 3, 4 then

 can be

[D] -2

Text Solution

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

Ans.

(i) [C]

(ii) [D]

(iii) [C],[D]

(iv) [A],[B]

Sol.

(i) (ax + by + c) (a'x + b'y + c') + λ xy = 0 represents parabola for maximum two values of λ .

(ii) Equation of radical axis is x = – 1. Let P = (–1, β ) ⇒ equation of chord of contact is (x + 3y + 16) – β (y – 3) = 0 ⇒ α 2 = 3

⇒ [ α ] = 1 or – 2

(iii) Equation of normal at ( α, β ) is 2( y – β ) + β (x – α ) = 0 ⇒ β ( α – 4) = 4

(iv) =
