Find the centre and radius of the circle \(x^2+y^2-2 x+4 y=8\)
We write the given equation in the form \(\left(x^2-2 x\right)+\left(y^2+4 y\right)=8\) Now, completing the squares, we get
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \left(x^2-2 x+1\right)+\left(y^2+4 y+4\right)=8+1+4 \\
& (x-1)^2+(y+2)^2=13
\end{aligned}
\)
Comparing it with the standard form of the equation of the circle, we see that the centre of the circle is \((1,-2)\) and radius is \(\sqrt{13}\).
If the equation of the parabola is \(x^2=-8 y\), find coordinates of the focus, the equation of the directrix and length of latus rectum.
The given equation is of the form \(x^2=-4 a y\) where \(a\) is positive.
Therefore, the focus is on \(y\)-axis in the negative direction and parabola opens downwards.
Comparing the given equation with standard form, we get \(a=2\).
Therefore, the coordinates of the focus are \((0,-2)\) and the the equation of directrix is \(y=2\) and the length of the latus rectum is \(4 a\), i.e., 8.
Given the ellipse with equation \(9 x^2+25 y^2=225\), find the major and minor axes, eccentricity, foci and vertices.
Find the equation of the ellipse with foci at \(( \pm 5,0)\) and \(x=\frac{36}{5}\) as one of the directrices.
We have \(a e=5, \frac{a}{e}=\frac{36}{5}\) which give \(a^2=36\) or \(a=6\). Therefore, \(e=\frac{5}{6}\).
Now \(b=a \sqrt{1-e^2}=6 \sqrt{1-\frac{25}{36}}=\sqrt{11}\). Thus, the equation of the ellipse is \(\frac{x^2}{36}+\frac{y^2}{11}=1\).
For the hyperbola \(9 x^2-16 y^2=144\), find the vertices, foci and eccentricity.
The equation of the hyperbola can be written as \(\frac{x^2}{16}-\frac{y^2}{9}=1\), so \(a=4, b=3\) and \(9=16\left(e^2-1\right)\), so that \(e^2=\frac{9}{16}+1=\frac{25}{16}\), which gives \(e=\frac{5}{4}\). Vertices are \(( \pm a, 0)=\) \(( \pm 4,0)\) and foci are \(( \pm a e, 0)=( \pm 5,0)\).
Find the equation of the hyperbola with vertices at \((0, \pm 6)[latex] and [latex]e=\frac{5}{3}\).
Since the vertices are on the \(y\)-axes (with origin at the mid-point), the equation is of the form \(\frac{y^2}{a^2}-\frac{x^2}{b^2}=1\).
As vertices are \((0, \pm 6), a=6, b^2=a^2\left(e^2-1\right)=36\left(\frac{25}{9}-1\right)=64\), so the required equation of the hyperbola is \(\frac{y^2}{36}-\frac{x^2}{64}=1\) and the foci are \((0, \pm a e)=(0, \pm 10)\).
Find the equation of the circle which passes through the points \((20,3)\), \((19,8)\) and \((2,-9)\). Find its centre and radius.
By substitution of coordinates in the general equation of the circle given by \(x^2+y^2+2 g x+2 f y+ c =0\), we have
\(
\begin{aligned}
40 g+6 f+ c & =-409 \\
38 g+16 f+ c & =-425 \\
4 g-18 f+ c & =-85
\end{aligned}
\)
From these three equations, we get
\(
g=-7, f=-3 \text { and } c=-111
\)
Hence, the equation of the circle is
\(
\begin{aligned}
x^2+y^2-14 x-6 y-111 & =0 \\
(x-7)^2+(y-3)^2 & =13^2
\end{aligned}
\)
Therefore, the centre of the circle is \((7,3)\) and radius is 13.
An equilateral triangle is inscribed in the parabola \(y^2=4 a x\) whose one vertex is at the vertex of the parabola. Find the length of the side of the triangle.
As shown in the figure APQ denotes the equilateral triangle with its equal sides of length \(l\) (say).
Here
\(
\begin{aligned}
AP & =l \operatorname{so~\mathrm {AR}}=l \cos 30^{\circ} \\
& =l \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \\
PR & =l \sin 30^{\circ}=\frac{l}{2} .
\end{aligned}
\)
Thus \(\left(\frac{l \sqrt{3}}{2}, \frac{l}{2}\right)\) are the coordinates of the point \(P\) lying on the parabola \(y^2=4 a x\).
Therefore, \(\quad \frac{l^2}{4}=4 a\left(\frac{l \sqrt{3}}{2}\right) \Rightarrow l=8 a \sqrt{3}\).
Thus, \(8 a \sqrt{3}\) is the required length of the side of the equilateral triangle inscribed in the parabola \(y^2=4 a x\).
Find the equation of the ellipse which passes through the point \((-3,1)\) and has eccentricity \(\frac{\sqrt{2}}{5}\), with \(x\)-axis as its major axis and centre at the origin.
Let \(\frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1\) be the equation of the ellipse passing through the point \((-3,1)\).
Therefore, we have
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \frac{9}{a^2}+\frac{1}{b^2}=1 . \\
& 9 b^2+a^2=a^2 b^2
\end{aligned}
\)
or \(9 a^2\left(a^2-e^2\right)+a^2=a^2 a^2\left(1-e^2\right)\)
(Using \(b^2=a^2\left(1-e^2\right)\)
or \(a^2=\frac{32}{3}\)
\(
b^2=a^2\left(1-e^2\right)=\frac{32}{3}\left(1-\frac{2}{5}\right)=\frac{32}{5}
\)
Hence, the required equation of the ellipse is
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \frac{x^2}{\frac{32}{3}}+\frac{y^2}{\frac{32}{5}}=1 \\
& 3 x^2+5 y^2=32 .
\end{aligned}
\)
Find the equation of the hyperbola whose vertices are \(( \pm 6,0)\) and one of the directrices is \(x=4\).
As the vertices are on the \(x\)-axis and their middle point is the origin, the equation is of the type \(\quad \frac{x^2}{a^2}-\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1\).
Here \(b^2=a^2\left(e^2-1\right)\), vertices are \(( \pm a, 0)\) and directrices are given by \(x= \pm \frac{a}{e}\).
Thus \(a=6, \frac{a}{e}=4\) and so \(e=\frac{3}{2}\) which gives \(b^2=36\left(\frac{9}{4}-1\right)=45\)
Consequently, the required equation of the hyperbola is \(\frac{x^2}{36}-\frac{y^2}{45}=1\)
The equation of the circle in the first quadrant touching each coordinate axis at a distance of one unit from the origin is:
The correct choice is (a), since the equation can be written as \((x-1)^2+\) \((y-1)^2=1\) which represents a circle touching both the axes with its centre \((1,1)\) and radius one unit.
The equation of the circle having centre \((1,-2)\) and passing through the point of intersection of the lines \(3 x+y=14\) and \(2 x+5 y=18\) is
The correct option is (a). The point of intersection of \(3 x+y-14=0\) and \(2 x\) \(+5 y-18=0\) are \(x=4, y=2\), i.e., the point \((4,2)\)
Therefore, the radius is \(=\sqrt{9+16}=5\) and hence the equation of the circle is given by
\(
\begin{aligned}
(x-1)^2+(y+2)^2 & =25 \\
\text { or } \quad x^2+y^2-2 x+4 y-20 & =0 .
\end{aligned}
\)
The area of the triangle formed by the lines joining the vertex of the parabola \(x^2=12 y\) to the ends of its latus rectum is
The correct option is (c). From the figure, \(O P Q\) represent the triangle whose area is to be determined. The area of the triangle
\(
=\quad \frac{1}{2} PQ \times OF =\frac{1}{2}(12 \times 3)=18
\)
The equations of the lines joining the vertex of the parabola \(y^2=6 x\) to the points on it which have abscissa 24 are
(b) is the correct choice. Let \(P\) and \(Q\) be points on the parabola \(y^2=6 x\) and \(OP , OQ\) be the lines joining the vertex \(O\) to the points \(P\) and \(Q\) whose abscissa are 24.
Thus
\(
\begin{aligned}
y^2 & =6 \times 24=144 \\
y & = \pm 12 .
\end{aligned}
\)
Therefore the coordinates of the points \(P\) and \(Q\) are \((24,12)\) and \((24,-12)\) respectively. Hence the lines are
\(
y= \pm \frac{12}{24} x \Rightarrow 2 y= \pm x .
\)
The equation of the ellipse whose centre is at the origin and the \(x\)-axis, the major axis, which passes through the points \((-3,1)\) and \((2,-2)\) is
(b) is the correct choice. Let \(\frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1\) be the equation of the ellipse. Then according to the given conditions, we have
\(
\begin{array}{lll}
\frac{9}{a^2}+\frac{1}{b^2}=1 & \text { and } & \frac{1}{a^2}+\frac{1}{b^2}=\frac{1}{4} \\
\text { which gives } a^2=\frac{32}{3} & \text { and } & b^2=\frac{32}{5} .
\end{array}
\)
Hence, required equation of ellipse is \(3 x^2+5 y^2=32\)
The length of the transverse axis along \(x\)-axis with centre at origin of a hyperbola is 7 and it passes through the point \((5,-2)\). The equation of the hyperbola is
(c) is the correct choice. Let \(\frac{x^2}{a^2}-\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1\) represent the hyperbola. Then according to the given condition, the length of transverse axis, i.e., \(2 a=7 \Rightarrow a=\frac{7}{2}\). Also, the point \((5,-2)\) lies on the hyperbola, so, we have
\(\frac{4}{49}(25)-\frac{4}{b^2}=1 \quad\) which gives
\(b^2=\frac{196}{51}\). Hence, the equation of the hyperbola is
\(
\frac{4}{49} x^2-\frac{51}{196} y^2=1
\)
State whether the statements in Examples 17 and 18 are correct or not. Justify.
Circle on which the coordinates of any point are \((2+4 \cos \theta,-1+\) \(4 \sin \theta\) ) where \(\theta\) is parameter is given by \((x-2)^2+(y+1)^2=16\).
True. From given conditions, we have
\(
\begin{aligned}
& x=2+4 \cos \theta \Rightarrow(x-2)=4 \cos \theta \\
\text { and } & y=-1+4 \sin \theta \Rightarrow y+1=4 \sin \theta .
\end{aligned}
\)
Squaring and adding, we get \((x-2)^2+(y+1)^2=16\).
A bar of given length moves with its extremities on two fixed straight lines at right angles. Any point of the bar describes an ellipse.
True. Let P \((x, y)\) be any point on the bar such that \(PA =a\) and \(PB =b\), clearly from the Fig. above.
\(
\begin{aligned}
& x= OL =b \cos \theta \text { and } \\
& y= PL =a \sin \theta
\end{aligned}
\)
These give \(\frac{x^2}{b^2}+\frac{y^2}{a^2}=1\), which is an ellipse.
The equation of the circle which passes through the point \((4,5)\) and has its centre at \((2,2)\) is \(\qquad\)
As the circle is passing through the point \((4,5)\) and its centre is \((2,2)\) so its radius is \(\sqrt{(4-2)^2+(5-2)^2}=\sqrt{13}\). Therefore the required answer is \((x-2)^2+(y-2)^2=13\).
A circle has radius 3 units and its centre lies on the line \(y=x-1\). If it passes through the point \((7,3)\), its equation is \(\qquad\)
Let \((h, k)\) be the centre of the circle. Then \(k=h-1\). Therefore, the equation of the circle is given by \((x-h)^2+[y-(h-1)]^2=9\)
Given that the circle passes through the point \((7,3)\) and hence we get
\(
\begin{array}{r}
(7-h)^2+(3-(h-1))^2=9 \\
(7-h)^2+(4-h)^2=9
\end{array}
\)
\(
h^2-11 h+28=0
\)
which gives \((h-7)(h-4)=0 \quad \Rightarrow h=4\) or \(h=7\)
Therefore, the required equations of the circles are \(x^2+y^2-8 x-6 y+16=0\) or
\(
x^2+y^2-14 x-12 y+76=0
\)
If the latus rectum of an ellipse with axis along \(x\)-axis and centre at origin is 10 , distance between foci \(=\) length of minor axis, then the equation of the ellipse is
Given that \(\frac{2 b^2}{a}=10\) and \(2 a e=2 b \Rightarrow b=a e\)
Again, we know that
\(
\begin{aligned}
b^2 & =a^2\left(1-e^2\right) \\
2 a^2 e^2 & =a^2 \Rightarrow e=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \quad(\text { using } b=a e)
\end{aligned}
\)
Thus
\(
a=b \sqrt{2}
\)
\(
\begin{array}{rlrl}
& \text { Again } \frac{2 b^2}{a} =10 \\
\text { or } & b =5 \sqrt{2} . \quad \text { Thus we get } a=10
\end{array}
\)
Therefore, the required equation of the ellipse is
\(
\frac{x^2}{100}+\frac{y^2}{50}=1
\)
The equation of the parabola whose focus is the point \((2,3)\) and directrix is the line \(x-4 y+3=0\) is
Using the definition of parabola, we have
\(
\sqrt{(x-2)^2+(y-3)^2}=\left|\frac{x-4 y+3}{\sqrt{17}}\right|
\)
Squaring, we get
\(
17\left(x^2+y^2-4 x-6 y+13\right)=x^2+16 y^2+9-8 x y-24 y+6 x
\)
or \(16 x^2+y^2+8 x y-74 x-78 y+212=0\)
The eccentricity of the hyperbola \(\frac{x^2}{a^2}-\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1\) which passes through the points \((3,0)\) and \((3 \sqrt{2}, 2)\) is
Given that the hyperbola \(\frac{x^2}{a^2}-\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1\) is passing through the points \((3,0)\) and \((3 \sqrt{2}, 2)\), so we get \(a^2=9\) and \(b^2=4\).
Again, we know that \(b^2=a^2\left(e^2-1\right)\). This gives
\(
\begin{aligned}
4 & =9\left(e^2-1\right) \\
e^2 & =\frac{13}{9} \\
e & =\frac{\sqrt{13}}{3} .
\end{aligned}
\)
Find the equation of the circle which touches the both axes in first quadrant and whose radius is \(a\).
Given that the circle has a radius aand touches both axis. So the centre is \((a, a)\).
\((x-a)^2+(y-a)^2=a^2\)
\(
x^2+y^2-2 a x-2 a y+a^2=0
\)
The point \((x, y)\) given by \(x=\frac{2 a t}{1+t^2}\) and \(y=\frac{a\left(1-t^2\right)}{1+t^2}\) lies on a circle for all real values of \(t\) such that \(-1 \leq t \leq 1\) where \(a\) is any given real numbers. Is this true?
We have variable point as \(x=\frac{2 a t}{1+t^2}\) and \(y=\frac{a\left(1-t^2\right)}{1+t^2}\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& x^2+y^2=\frac{4 a^2 t^2}{\left(1+t^2\right)^2}+\frac{a^2\left(1+t^4-2 t^2\right)}{\left(1+t^2\right)^2} \\
& =\frac{a^2+a^2 t^4+2 a^2 t^2}{\left(1+t^2\right)^2} \\
& =\frac{a^2\left(1+t^2\right)^2}{\left(1+t^2\right)^2} \\
& =a^2
\end{aligned}
\)
If a circle passes through the point \((0,0)(a, 0),(0, b)\) then find the coordinates of its centre.
As we know,
The equation of a circle with centre \((h, k)\) and radius as \(r\) units, is
\(
(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2
\)
Step 2. Put the values of given coordinates in general equation:
First, \((0,0)\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \Rightarrow(0-h)^2+(0-k)^2=r^2 \\
& \Rightarrow h^2+k^2=r^2
\end{aligned}
\)
Second, \((a, 0)\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \Rightarrow(a-h)^2+(0-k)^2=r^2 \\
& \Rightarrow a^2+h^2-2 a h+k^2=r^2 \dots(1)
\end{aligned}
\)
Third, \((0, b)\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \Rightarrow(0-h)^2+(b-k)^2=r^2 \\
& \Rightarrow h^2+b^2+k^2-2 b k=r^2 \dots(2)
\end{aligned}
\)
Step 3. By solving equation(1) and (2), respectively, we get
\(
\begin{aligned}
& a(a-2 h)=0 \\
& \Rightarrow a=0,2 h \\
& \Rightarrow h=\frac{a}{2} \\
& b(b-2 k)=0 \\
& \Rightarrow b=0,2 k \\
& \Rightarrow k=\frac{b}{2}
\end{aligned}
\)
\(\therefore\) The coordinates of centre are \(\left(\frac{a}{2}, \frac{b}{2}\right)\)
Find the equation of the circle which touches \(x\)-axis and whose centre is \((1,2)\).
Given that, circle with centre \((1,2)\) touches \(x\)-axis.
Radius of the circle is, \(r=2\)
So, the equation of the required circle is:
\(
\begin{aligned}
& (x-1)^2+(y-2)^2=2^2 \\
& =>x^2-2 x+1+y^2-4 y+4=4 \\
& \Rightarrow x^2+y^2-2 x-4 y+1=0
\end{aligned}
\)
If the lines \(3 x-4 y+4=0\) and \(6 x-8 y-7=0\) are tangents to a circle, then find the radius of the circle.
Given lines are \(3 x-4 y+4=0\) and \(6 x-8 y-7=0\).
These parallel lines are tangent to a circle.
\(\therefore \quad\) Diameter of the circle \(=\) Distance between the lines
\(
=\left|\frac{8-(-7)}{\sqrt{36+64}}\right|=\frac{15}{10}=\frac{3}{2}
\)
\(
\therefore \quad \text { Radius of the circle }=\frac{3}{4}
\)
Find the equation of a circle which touches both the axes and the line \(3 x-4 y+8=0\) and lies in the third quadrant.
Perpendicular Distance (Between a point and line) \(=\frac{\left| ax _1+ by _1+ c \right|}{\sqrt{ a ^2+ b ^2}}\), whereas the point is \(\left(x_1, y_1\right)\) and the line is expressed as \(a x+b y+c=0\)
The line which touches the circle is \(3 x-4 y+8=0\), which is a tangent to the circle.
\(\therefore\) The perpendicular distance \(=\) a units (radius of the circle)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& a=\frac{\left|a x_1+b y_1+c\right|}{\sqrt{a^2+b^2}} \\
& a=\frac{|3(-a)-4(-a)+8|}{\sqrt{3^2+4^2}} \\
& a=\frac{|-3 a+4 a+8|}{\sqrt{9+16}} \\
& a=\frac{a+8}{5} Â \\
& a=2
\end{aligned}
\)
Co-ordinates of the centre of the circle \(=(-2,-2)\)
SInce, the equation of a circle having centre \((h, k)\), having radlus as ” \(r\) ” unlts, Is
\(
\begin{aligned}
& (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2 \\
& (x-(-2))^2+(y-(-2))^2=2^2 \\
& x^2+y^2+4 x+4 y+4=0
\end{aligned}
\)
If one end of a diameter of the circle \(x^2+y^2-4 x-6 y+11=0\) is \((3,4)\), then find the coordinate of the other end of the diameter.
Given equation of the circle is:
\(
\begin{array}{ll}
& x^2+y^2-4 x-6 y+11=0 \\
\therefore \quad & 2 g=-4 \text { and } 2 f=-6
\end{array}
\)
So, the centre of the circle is \(C(-g,-f) \equiv C(2,3)\) \(A(3,4)\) is one end of the diameter.
Let the other end of the diameter be \(B\left(x_1, y_1\right)\)
Here, mid point of \(A B\) is \(C\).
\(
\begin{array}{ll}
\therefore & 2=\frac{3+x_1}{2} \text { and } 3=\frac{4+y_1}{2} \\
\Rightarrow & x_1=1 \text { and } y_1=2
\end{array}
\)
So, the coordinates of other end of the diameter are \((1,2)\)
Given equation of the circle is:
\(
\begin{array}{ll}
& x^2+y^2-4 x-6 y+11=0 \\
\therefore \quad & 2 g=-4 \text { and } 2 f=-6
\end{array}
\)
So, the centre of the circle is \(C(-g,-f) \equiv C(2,3)\) \(A(3,4)\) is one end of the diameter.
Let the other end of the diameter be \(B\left(x_1, y_1\right)\)
Here, mid point of \(A B\) is \(C\).
\(
\begin{array}{ll}
\therefore & 2=\frac{3+x_1}{2} \text { and } 3=\frac{4+y_1}{2} \\
\Rightarrow & x_1=1 \text { and } y_1=2
\end{array}
\)
So, the coordinates of other end of the diameter are \((1,2)\)
Find the equation of the circle having \((1,-2)\) as its centre and passing through \(3 x+y=14,2 x+5 y=18\)
Given lines are \(3 x+y=14\) and \(2 x+5 y=18\).
Solving these equations we get point of intersection of the lines as \(A(4,2)/latex]
[latex]
\text { Radius }=\sqrt{(4-1)^2+\left(2-(-2)^2\right.}=\sqrt{9+16}=5
\)
So, equation of the required circle is:
\(
\begin{aligned}
& (x-1)^2+(y+2)^2=5^2 \\
& x^2+y^2-2 x+4 y-20=0
\end{aligned}
\)
If the line \(y=\sqrt{3} x+k\) touches the circle \(x^2+y^2=16\), then find the value of \(k\).
Given line is \(y =\sqrt{3} x + k\) and the circle is \(x ^2+ y ^2=16\).
Centre of the circle is \((0,0)\) and radius is 4 .
Since the line \(y=\sqrt{3} x+k\) touches the circle, perpendicular distance from \((0,0)\) to line is equal to the radius of the circle.
\(
\therefore \quad\left|\frac{0-0+k}{\sqrt{3+1}}\right|=4 \Rightarrow \pm \frac{k}{2}=4 \Rightarrow k= \pm 8
\)
Find the equation of a circle concentric with the circle \(x^2+y^2-6 x+12 y+15=0\) and has double of its area.
The given equation of circle is
\(
\begin{aligned}
& x^2+y^2-6 x+12 y+15=0 \dots(i) \\
& \therefore \text { centre }=(-g,-f)=(3,-6) \\
& \text { radius }=\sqrt{g^2+f^2-c}=\sqrt{9+36-15}=\sqrt{30}
\end{aligned}
\)
Now, the required equation of circle in concentric with (i) which means both have same centre (3. -6\()\)
Also,
Area of required circle \(=2 \times\) Area of \(\pi r^2=2 \times \pi(\sqrt{30})^2\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \Rightarrow R^2=60 \\
& \Rightarrow R=2 \sqrt{15}
\end{aligned}
\)
Thus,
the required circle is
\(
\begin{aligned}
& (x-3)^2+(y+6)^2=60 \\
& x^2+y^2-6 x+12 y-15=0
\end{aligned}
\)
If the latus rectum of an ellipse is equal to half of minor axis, then find its eccentricity.
Let the equation of an ellipse is \(\frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1\)
Length of major axis \(=2 a\)
Length of minor axis \(=2 b\)
It is given that, length of latus rectum = half of minor axis
And the length of latus rectum \(=\frac{2 b^2}{a}\)
We have \(\frac{2 b^2}{a}=\frac{2 b}{2}\)
\(
\Rightarrow b =\frac{a}{2}
\)
Now \(b^2=a^2\left(1-e^2\right)\), where \(e\) is the eccentricity
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \Rightarrow b ^2=4 b ^2\left(1- e ^2\right) \\
& \Rightarrow 1=4\left(1- e ^2\right) \\
& \Rightarrow 1- e ^2=\frac{1}{4} \\
& \Rightarrow e ^2=1-\frac{1}{4} \\
& \Rightarrow e ^2=\frac{3}{4} \\
& \therefore e = \pm \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}
\end{aligned}
\)
\(
\text { So, } e =\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \quad \ldots . .[\because \text { e is not }(-)]
\)
Given the ellipse with equation \(9 x^2+25 y^2=225\), find the eccentricity and foci.
Given equation of ellipse, \(9 x^2+25 y^2=225\)
or \(\quad \frac{x^2}{25}+\frac{y^2}{9}=1\)
So, \(\quad a=5, b=3\)
Now, \(b^2=a^2\left(1-e^2\right)\)
\(\Rightarrow \quad 9=25\left(1-e^2\right) \Rightarrow \frac{9}{25}=1-e^2 \Rightarrow e^2=1-\frac{9}{25}=\frac{16}{25}\)
\(\therefore \quad e=\frac{4}{5}\)
Foci \(\equiv( \pm a e, 0) \equiv( \pm 5 \times(4 / 5), 0) \equiv( \pm 4,0)\)
If the eccentricity of an ellipse is \(\frac{5}{8}\) and the distance between its foci is 10 , then find latus rectum of the ellipse.
Given: the distance between its foci be 10 and is denoted by \(2 c=10 \Rightarrow c=5\).
As we know that the eccentricity,\(e=\frac{c}{a}\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \Rightarrow \frac{5}{8}=\frac{5}{a} \\
& \therefore a=8
\end{aligned}
\)
Also \(c^2=a^2-b^2\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \Rightarrow b^2=a^2-c^2 \\
& =8^2-5^2 \\
& =64-25 \\
& \therefore b=39
\end{aligned}
\)
Thus, length of the latus rectum is \(=\frac{2 b^2}{a}\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& =\frac{2(39)^2}{8} \\
& =\frac{39}{4}
\end{aligned}
\)
Find the equation of ellipse whose eccentricity is \(\frac{2}{3}\), latus rectum is 5 and the centre is \((0,0)\).
Let equation of the ellipse be \(\frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1(a>b)\) Given that, \(e=\frac{2}{3}\) and latus rectum \(=5\)
\(\therefore \quad \frac{2 b^2}{a}=5 \Rightarrow b^2=\frac{5 a}{2}\)
We know that, \(b^2=a^2\left(1-e^2\right)\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \Rightarrow \quad \frac{5 a}{2}=a^2\left(1-\frac{4}{9}\right) \Rightarrow \frac{5}{2}=\frac{5 a}{9} \Rightarrow a=\frac{9}{2} \\
& \therefore \quad b^2=\frac{5 \times 9}{2 \times 2}=\frac{45}{4}
\end{aligned}
\)
So, the required equation of the ellipse is \(\frac{4 x^2}{81}+\frac{4 y^2}{45}=1\).
Find the distance between the directrices of the ellipse \(\frac{x^2}{36}+\frac{y^2}{20}=1\).
The equation of ellipse is \(\frac{x^2}{36}+\frac{y^2}{20}=1\).
\(
\therefore \quad a=6, b=2 \sqrt{5}
\)
We know that, \(b^2=a^2\left(1-e^2\right)\)
\(
\begin{array}{ll}
\Rightarrow & 20=36\left(1-e^2\right) \Rightarrow \frac{5}{9}=1-e^2 \Rightarrow e^2=\frac{4}{9} \\
& \therefore \quad e=\frac{2}{3}
\end{array}
\)
Now, directrices are: \(x= \pm \frac{a}{e}\)
\(\therefore\) Distance between direcrtrix \(=\frac{2 a}{e}=\frac{2 \times 6}{2 / 3}=18\)
Find the coordinates of a point on the parabola \(y^2=8 x\) whose focal distance is 4.
Given parabola is \(y^2=8 x \dots(i)\)
Comparing with the equation of parabola \(y ^2=4 ax\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& 4 a=8 \\
& \Rightarrow a=2
\end{aligned}
\)
Now focal distance \(=|x+a|\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \Rightarrow|x+a|=4 \\
& \Rightarrow(x+a)= \pm 4 \\
& \Rightarrow x+2= \pm 4 \\
& \Rightarrow x=4-2=2
\end{aligned}
\)
And \(x=-6\)
But \(x \neq-6\)
\(
\therefore x =2
\)
Put \(x=2\) in equation (i) we get
\(
\begin{aligned}
& y ^2=8 \times 2=16 \\
& \therefore y = \pm 4
\end{aligned}
\)
So, the coordinates of the point are \((2,4),(2,-4)\).
Find the length of the line-segment joining the vertex of the parabola \(y^2=4 a x\) and a point on the parabola where the line-segment makes an angle \(\theta\) to the \(x\) axis.
Let the coordinates of the point on the parabola be \(B \left(x_1, y_1\right)\).
Let \(B O\) be the line segment
In right triangle \(AOB\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \cos \theta=\frac{A O}{O B} \text { and } \sin \theta=\frac{A B}{O B} \\
& \Rightarrow \cos \theta=\frac{x_1}{O B} \text { and } \sin \theta=\frac{y_1}{O B}
\end{aligned}
\)
\(\therefore x_1= OB \cos \theta\) and \(y_1= OB \sin \theta\)
Now, the curve is passing through \(\left(x_1, y_1\right)\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \therefore\left(y_1\right)^2=4 a\left(x_1\right) \\
& \Rightarrow(O B \sin \theta)^2=4 a( OB \cos \theta) \\
& \Rightarrow O B^2 \sin ^2 \theta=4 a O B \cos \theta \\
& \Rightarrow O B=\frac{4 a \cos \theta}{\sin ^2 \theta}
\end{aligned}
\)
If the points \((0,4)\) and \((0,2)\) are respectively the vertex and focus of a parabola, then find the equation of the parabola.
Given that the vertex of the parabola is \(A(0,4)\) and its focus is \(S(0,2)\). So, directrix of the parabola is \(y=6\).
Now by definition of the parabola for any point \(P(x, y)\) on the parabola, \(S P=P M\)
\(
\sqrt{(x-0)^2+(y-2)^2}=\left|\frac{0+y-6}{\sqrt{(0+1)}}\right|
\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& x^2+y^2-4 y+4=y^2-12 y+36 \\
& x^2+8 y=32
\end{aligned}
\)
If the line \(y=m x+1\) is tangent to the parabola \(y^2=4 x\) then find the value of \(m\).
We have \(y^2=4 x\)
Substituting the value of \(y=m x+1\) in \(y^2=4 x\), we get
\(
\begin{aligned}
& (m x+1)^2=4 x \\
& \Rightarrow m^2 x^2+2 m x+1=4 x \\
& \Rightarrow m^2 x^2+(2 m-4) x+1=0 \dots(1)
\end{aligned}
\)
Since, a tangent touches the curve at a point, the roots of (1) must be equal.
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \therefore D=0 \\
& \Rightarrow(2 m-4)^2-4 m^2=0 \\
& \Rightarrow 4 m^2-16 m+16-4 m^2=0 \\
& \Rightarrow m=1
\end{aligned}
\)
If the distance between the foci of a hyperbola is 16 and its eccentricity is \(\sqrt{2}\), then obtain the equation of the hyperbola.
Let the equation of the hyperbola be \(\frac{x^2}{a^2}-\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1\).
Foci are \(( \pm a e, 0)\).
Distance between foci \(=2 a e=16\) (given)
Also, \(e=\sqrt{2}\) (Given)
\(\therefore \quad a=4 \sqrt{2}\)
We know that, \(b^2=a^2\left(e^2-1\right)\)
\(
\Rightarrow \quad b^2=(4 \sqrt{2})^2\left[(\sqrt{2})^2-1\right]=16 \times 2(2-1)=32
\)
So, the equation of hyperbola is: \(\frac{x^2}{32}-\frac{y^2}{32}=1\) or \(x^2-y^2=32\)
Find the eccentricity of the hyperbola \(9 y^2-4 x^2=36\).
We have the hyperbola: \(9 y^2-4 x^2=36\)
\(
\frac{x^2}{9}-\frac{y^2}{4}=-1
\)
We know that \(a^2=b^2\left(e^2-1\right)\)
\(
\begin{array}{ll}
\therefore & 9=4\left(e^2-1\right) \\
\Rightarrow & e=\sqrt{1+\frac{9}{4}}=\frac{\sqrt{13}}{2}
\end{array}
\)
Find the equation of the hyperbola with eccentricity \(\frac{3}{2}\) and foci at \(( \pm 2,0)\).
Let the equation of the hyperbola be \(\frac{x^2}{a^2}-\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1\).
Given that eccentricity, \(e=\frac{3}{2}\) and foci \(( \pm a e, 0) \equiv( \pm 2,0)\)
\(
\begin{array}{ll}
\therefore & a e=2 \\
\Rightarrow & a \times \frac{3}{2}=2 \Rightarrow a=\frac{4}{3}
\end{array}
\)
We know that, \(b^2=a^2\left(e^2-1\right)\)
\(
\Rightarrow \quad b^2=\frac{16}{9}\left(\frac{9}{4}-1\right)=\frac{16}{9} \times \frac{5}{4}=\frac{20}{9}
\)
So, the equation of hyperbola is:
\(
\frac{x^2}{\frac{16}{9}}-\frac{y^2}{\frac{20}{9}}=1 \Rightarrow \frac{x^2}{16}-\frac{y^2}{20}=\frac{1}{9}
\)
\(
\frac{x^2}{4}-\frac{y^2}{5}=\frac{4}{9} \text {. }
\)
If the lines \(2 x-3 y=5\) and \(3 x-4 y=7\) are the diameters of a circle of area 154 square units, then obtain the equation of the circle.
Given that lines \(2 x-3 y-5=0\) and \(3 x-4 y-1=0\) are diameters of the circle. Solving these lines we get point of intersection as \((1,-1)\), which is centre of the circle.
Also given that are of the circle is 154 sq. units.
Let the radius of the circle be \(r\).
Then, \(\quad \pi r^2=154\)
\(
\begin{array}{ll}
\Rightarrow & \frac{22}{7} \times r^2=154 \Rightarrow r^2=\frac{154 \times 7}{22}=49 \\
\therefore, r=7
\end{array}
\)
So, the equation of circle is:
\(
\begin{aligned}
& (x-1)^2+(y+1)^2=49 \\
& \Rightarrow \quad x^2-2 x+1+y^2+2 y+1=49 \quad \Rightarrow \quad x^2+y^2-2 x+2 y=47
\end{aligned}
\)
Find the equation of the circle which passes through the points \((2,3)\) and \((4,5)\) and the centre lies on the straight line \(y-4 x+3=0\).
Centre lies on the line \(y-4 x+3=0\)
Let \(x = h\)
\(
\Rightarrow y =4 h -3
\)
So the center is of the form \((h, 4 h-3)\)
Distance of centre from \((2,3)\) and \((4,5)\) will be equal
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \Rightarrow(h-2)^2+(4 h-3-3)^2=(h-4)^2+(4 h-3-5)^2 \\
& \Rightarrow h =2
\end{aligned}
\)
So the centre is \((2,5)\)
\(
r =\sqrt{(2-2)^2+(5-3)^2}=2
\)
So the equation of the circle is
\(
\begin{aligned}
& (x-2)^2+(y-5)^2=2^2 \\
& x^2+y^2-4 x-10 y+25=0
\end{aligned}
\)
Find the equation of a circle whose centre is \((3,-1)\) and which cuts off a chord of length 6 units on the line \(2 x-5 y+18=0\).
Given centre of the circle \(O(3,-1)\) Chord of the circle is \(A B\).
Given that equation of \(A B\) is \(2 x-5 y+18=0\).
Also, \(A B=6\)
Perpendicular distance from \(O\) to \(A B\) is:
\(
O P=\left|\frac{2(3)-5(-1)+18}{\sqrt{4+25}}\right|=\frac{29}{\sqrt{29}}=\sqrt{29}
\)
In \(\triangle O P B\), we have
\(
O B^2=O P^2+P B^2 \Rightarrow O B^2=29+9=38
\)
So, the radius of circle is \(\sqrt{38}\). Thus, equation of the circle is:
\(
(x-3)^2+(y+1)^2=38
\)
Find the equation of a circle of radius 5 which is touching another circle \(x^2+y^2-2 x-4 y-20=0\) at \((5,5)\).
Given circle \(x^2+y^2-2 x-4 y-20=0\)
or \(\quad(x-1)^2+(y-2)^2=5^2\)
Centre of the this circle is \(C_1(1,2)\).
Now, the required circle of radius ‘ 5 ‘ touches the above circle at \(P(5,5)\).
Let the centre of the required circle be \(C_2(h, k)\).
Since the radius of the given circle and the required circle is same, point \(P\) is mid point of \(C_1\) and \(C_2\)
\(
\therefore \quad 5=\frac{1+h}{2} \Rightarrow h=9 \text { and } 5=\frac{2+k}{2} \Rightarrow k=8
\)
So, the equation of and required circle is:
\(
\begin{array}{ll}
& (x-9)^2+(y-8)^2=25 \\
\Rightarrow \quad & x^2-18 x+81+y^2-16 y+64=25 \\
\Rightarrow \quad & x^2+y^2-18 x-16 y+120=0
\end{array}
\)
Find the equation of a circle passing through the point \((7,3)\) having radius 3 units and whose centre lies on the line \(y=x-1\).
Given that circle passes through the point \(A(7,3)\) and its radius is 3 .
Also, centre of the circle lies on the line \(y=x-1\).
Therefore, centre of the circle is \(C(h, h-1)\).
Now, radius of the circle is \(A C=3\) (given)
\(
\begin{array}{ll}
\therefore & (h-7)^2+(h-1-3)^2=9 \\
\Rightarrow & 2 h^2-22 h+56=0 \Rightarrow h^2-11 h+28=0 \\
\Rightarrow & (h-4)(h-7)=0 \\
\Rightarrow & h=4,7
\end{array}
\)
Thus, centre of the circle is \(C(4,3)\) or \(C(7,6)\).
Hence, equation of the circle can be:
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \quad(x-4)^2+(y-3)^2=9 \text { and }(x-7)^2+(y-6)^2=9 \\
& \Rightarrow \quad x^2+y^2-8 x-6 y+16=0 \text { and } x^2+y^2-14 x-12 y+76=0
\end{aligned}
\)
Find the equation of each of the following parabolas
(a) Directrix \(x=0\), focus at \((6,0)\)
(b) Vertex at \((0,4)\), focus at \((0,2)\)
(c) Focus at \((-1,-2)\), directrix \(x-2 y+3=0\)
We know that the distance of any point on the parabola from its focus and its directrix is same.
(a) Given that, directrix, \(x=0\) and focus \(=(6,0)\)
So, for any point \(P ( x , y )\) on the parabola
Distance of \(P\) from directrix \(=\) Distance of \(P\) from focus \(=>x^2=(x-6)^2+y^2\)
\(\Rightarrow \quad y^2-12 x+36=0\)
(b) Given that, vertex \(=(0,4)\) and focus \(=(0,2)\)
Now distance between the vertex and directrix is same as the distance between the vertex and focus.
Directrix is \(y-6=0\)
For any point of \(P ( x , y )\) on the parabola
Distance of \(P\) from directrix \(=\) Distance of \(P\) from focus
\(
\begin{array}{ll}
\Rightarrow & |y-6|=\sqrt{(x-0)^2+(y-2)^2} \\
\Rightarrow & y^2-12 y+36=x^2+y^2-4 y+4 \\
\Rightarrow & x^2=32-8 y
\end{array}
\)
(c) Given that, focus at \((-1,-2)\) and directrix \(x-2 y+3=0\)
So, the equation of parabola is
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \sqrt{(x+1)^2+(y+2)^2}=\left|\frac{x-2 y+3}{\sqrt{1+4}}\right| \\
\Rightarrow \quad & x^2+2 x+1+y^2+4 y+4=\frac{1}{5}\left[x^2+4 y^2+9+6 x-4 x y-12 y\right] \\
\Rightarrow \quad & 4 x^2+4 x y+y^2+4 x+32 y+16=0
\end{aligned}
\)
Find the equation of the set of all points the sum of whose distances from the points \((3,0)\) and \(\)(9,0)\(\) is 12.
Let \((x, y)\) be any point.
Given points are \((3,0)\) and \((9,0)\)
We have \(\sqrt{(x-3)^2+(y-0)^2}+\sqrt{(x-9)^2+(y-0)^2}=12\)
\(
\Rightarrow \sqrt{x^2+9-6 x+y^2}+\sqrt{x^2+81-18 x+y^2}=12
\)
Putting \(x^2+9-6 x+y^2=k\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \Rightarrow \sqrt{k}+\sqrt{72-12 x+k}=12 \\
& \Rightarrow \sqrt{72-12 x+k}=12-\sqrt{k}
\end{aligned}
\)
Squaring both sides, we have
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \Rightarrow 72-12 x + k =144+k-24 \sqrt{k} \\
& \Rightarrow 24 \sqrt{k}=144-72+12 x \\
& \Rightarrow 24 \sqrt{k}=72+12 x \\
& \Rightarrow 2 \sqrt{k}=6+ x
\end{aligned}
\)
Again squaring both sides, we get
\(
4 k=36+x^2+12 x
\)
Putting the value of \(k\), we have
\(
\begin{aligned}
& 4\left(x^2+9-6 x+y^2\right)=36+x^2+12 x \\
& \Rightarrow 4 x^2+36-24 x+4 y^2=36+x^2+12 x \\
& \Rightarrow 3 x^2+4 y^2-36 x=0
\end{aligned}
\)
Hence, the required equation is \(3 x^2+4 y^2-36 x=0\).
Find the equation of the set of all points whose distance from \((0,4)\) are \(\frac{2}{3}\) of their distance from the line \(y=9\).
Let \(P(x, y)\) be a point.
We have \(\sqrt{(x-0)^2+(y-4)^2}=\frac{2}{3}\left|\frac{y-9}{1}\right|\)
Squaring both sides, we have
\(
\begin{aligned}
& x^2+(y-4)^2=\frac{4}{9}\left(y^2+81-18 y\right) \\
& \Rightarrow 9 x^2+9(y-4)^2=4 y^2+324-72 y \\
& \Rightarrow 9 x^2+9 y^2+144-72 y=4 y^2+324-72 y \\
& \Rightarrow 9 x^2+5 y^2+144-324=0 \\
& \Rightarrow 9 x^2+5 y^2-180=0
\end{aligned}
\)
Hence, the required equation is \(9 x^2+5 y^2-180=0\).
The set of all points such that the difference of their distances from \((4,0)\) and \((-4,0)\) is always equal to 2 represent a hyperbola. Is this statement true?
Let the points be \(P(x, y)\).
According to the question
Distance of \(P\) from \((4,0)\) – Distance of \(P\) from \((-4,0)=2\)
\(
\begin{array}{ll}
\Rightarrow & \sqrt{(x+4)^2+y^2}-\sqrt{(x-4)^2+y^2}=2 \\
\Rightarrow & \sqrt{(x+4)^2+y^2}=2+\sqrt{(x-4)^2+y^2}
\end{array}
\)
Squaring both sides, we get
\(
\begin{aligned}
& x^2+8 x+16+y^2=4+x^2-8 x+16+y^2+4 \sqrt{(x-4)^2+y^2} \\
\Rightarrow \quad & (4 x-1)=\sqrt{(x-4)^2+y^2}
\end{aligned}
\)
Again squaring both sides we get
\(
\begin{aligned}
& 16 x^2-8 x+1=x^2+16-8 x+y^2 \\
& \Rightarrow \quad 15 x^2-y^2=15 \text { which is a parabola. }
\end{aligned}
\)
Find the equation of the hyperbola with
(a) Vertices \(( \pm 5,0)\), foci \(( \pm 7,0)\)
(b) Vertices \((0, \pm 7), e=\frac{4}{3}\)
(c) Foci \((0, \pm \sqrt{10})\), passing through \((2,3)\)
(a) Given that, vertices \(=( \pm 5,0)\), foci \(=( \pm 7,0)\)
\(\therefore \quad a=5\) and \(a e=7\)
\(\Rightarrow e=\frac{7}{5}\)
Now \(b^2=a^2\left(e^2-1\right)=25\left(\frac{49}{25}-1\right)=49-25=24\)
So, the equation of hyperbola is
\(\frac{x^2}{25}-\frac{y^2}{24}=1\)
(b)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \text { Vertices }=(0, \pm 7), e=\frac{4}{3} \\
& \therefore \quad b=7, e=\frac{4}{3}
\end{aligned}
\)
Now, \(a^2=b^2\left(e^2-1\right)=49\left(\frac{16}{9}-1\right)=\frac{343}{9}\)
So, the equation of hyperbola is:
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \frac{x^2}{a^2}-\frac{y^2}{b^2}=-1 \\
\Rightarrow & \frac{x^2}{343 / 9}-\frac{y^2}{49}=-1 \Rightarrow 9 x^2-7 y^2+343=0
\end{aligned}
\)
(c) Given that, foci \(=(0, \pm \sqrt{10})\)
\(\therefore \quad b e=\sqrt{10}\)
Also \(a^2=b^2\left(e^2-1\right)\)
\(
\Rightarrow a^2=b^2 e^2-b^2=10-b^2
\)
\(\therefore \quad\) Equation of the hyperbola is
\(
\frac{x^2}{a^2}-\frac{y^2}{b^2}=-1 \text { or } \frac{x^2}{10-b^2}-\frac{y^2}{b^2}=-1
\)
Since, hyperbola passes through the point \((2,3)\).
\(
\begin{array}{ll}
\therefore & \frac{4}{10-b^2}-\frac{9}{b^2}=-1 \\
\Rightarrow & 4 b^2-9\left(10-b^2\right)=-b^2\left(10-b^2\right) \\
\Rightarrow & b^4-23 b^2+90=0 \Rightarrow\left(b^2-18\right)\left(b^2-5\right)=0 \\
\Rightarrow & b^2=5\left(b^2=18 \text { not possible as } a^2+b^2=10\right) \\
\therefore & a^2=10-5=5
\end{array}
\)
So, the equation of hyperbola is \(\frac{x^2}{5}-\frac{y^2}{5}=-1\) or \(y^2-x^2=5\)
The line \(x+3 y=0\) is a diameter of the circle \(x^2+y^2+6 x+2 y=0\). The statement is true or false.
Given equation of the circle is \(x^2+y^2+6 x+2 y=0\)
Centre is \((-3,-1)\)
If \(x+3 y=0\) is the equation of diameter
Then the centre \((-3,-1)\) will lie on \(x+3 y=0\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& -3+3(-1)=0 \\
& \Rightarrow-6 \neq 0
\end{aligned}
\)
So, \(x+3 y=0\) is not the diameter of the circle.
The shortest distance from the point \((2,-7)\) to the circle \(x^2+y^2-14 x-10 y-151=0\) is equal to 5. Is this true or false?
Given circle is \(x^2+y^2-14 x-10 y-151=0\)
\(\therefore \quad\) Centre \(\equiv C(7,5)\)
And \(\quad\) Radius \(=\sqrt{49+25+151}=\sqrt{225}=15\)
Now distance between the point \(P(2,-7)\) and centre
\(
=\sqrt{(2-7)^2+(-7-5)^2}=\sqrt{25+144}=\sqrt{169}=13
\)
\(\therefore \quad\) Shortest distance of point \(P\) from the circle \(=|13-15|=2\)
If the line \(l x+m y=1\) is a tangent to the circle \(x^2+y^2=a^2\), then the point \((l, m)\) lies on a circle. Is this statement true or false?
True
Given circle is \(x^2+y^2=a^2\)
\(\therefore\) Radius \(=a\) and centre \(\equiv(0,0)\)
Now given that line \(l x+m y-1=0\) is tangent to the circle
\(\therefore\) Distance of \((0,0)\) from the line \(l x+m y-1=0\) is equal to radius ‘ \(a\) ‘.
\(
\Rightarrow \quad \frac{|0+0-1|}{\sqrt{l^2+m}}=a \Rightarrow l^2+m^2=\frac{1}{a^2}
\)
Thus, locus of \((l, m)\) is \(x^2+y^2=\frac{1}{a^2}\), which is circle.
The point \((1,2)\) lies inside the circle \(x^2+y^2-2 x+6 y+1=0\). Is this true or false?
Given circle is \(x^2+y^2-2 x+6 y+1=0\).
or \(\quad(x-1)^2+(y+3)^2=3^2\)
Centre is \(C(1,-3)\) and radius is 3 .
Distance of point \(P(1,2)\) from centre is 5 .
Thus, \(C P>\) radius
So, point \(P\) lies outside the circle.
The line \(l x+m y+n=0\) will touch the parabola \(y^2=4 a x\) if \(\ln =a m^2\). Is this true or false?
True
Give line \(l x+m y+n=0\) and parabola \(y^2=4 a x\)
Solving line and parabola for their point of intersection, we get
\(
\frac{l}{4 a} y^2+m y+n=0
\)
Since line touches the parabola, above equation must have equal roots.
\(\therefore \quad\) Discriminant, \(D=0\)
\(\therefore \quad m^2-4\left(\frac{l}{4 a}\right) n=0 \Rightarrow a m^2=n l\)
If \(P\) is a point on the ellipse \(\frac{x^2}{16}+\frac{y^2}{25}=1\) whose foci are \(S\) and \(S ^{\prime}\), then \(PS + PS ^{\prime}=8\). Is this true or false?
False
We have equation of the ellipse is \(\frac{x}{16}+\frac{y^2}{25}=1\)
From the definition of the ellipse, we know that sum of the distances of any point \(P\) on the ellipse from the two foci is equal to the length of the major axis.
Here major axis \(=2 b=2 \times 5=10\)
\(S\) and \(S^{\prime}\) are foci, then \(S P+S^{\prime} P=10\)
The line \(2 x+3 y=12\) touches the ellipse \(\frac{x^2}{9}+\frac{y^2}{4}=2\) at the point \((3,2)\). Is this true or false?
True
Given line is \(2 x+3 y=12\) and the ellipse is \(4 x^2+9 y^2=72\).
Solving line and ellipse, we get
\(
\begin{array}{ll}
& (12-3 y)^2+9 y^2=72 \\
\Rightarrow & (4-y)^2+y^2=8 \Rightarrow 2 y^2-8 y+8=0 \Rightarrow y^2-4 y+4=0 \\
\Rightarrow \quad & (y-2)^2=0 \Rightarrow y=2 \\
\Rightarrow \quad & 2 x=12-3(2) \\
\Rightarrow \quad & x=3
\end{array} \quad \text { (from the equation of line) }
\)
So, point of contact is \((3,2)\).
The locus of the point of intersection of lines \(\sqrt{3} x-y-4 \sqrt{3} k=0\) and \(\sqrt{3} k x+k y-4 \sqrt{3}=0\) for different value of \(k\) is a hyperbola whose eccentricity is 2. Is this true or false?
True
Given equation of lines are:
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \sqrt{3} x-y-4 \sqrt{3} k=0 \\
& \text { and } \quad \sqrt{3} k x+k y-4 \sqrt{3}=0 \\
&
\end{aligned}
\)
From Eq. (i), \(k=\frac{\sqrt{3} x-y}{4 \sqrt{3}}\)
From Eq. (ii), \(k=\frac{4 \sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3} x+y}\)
Equating the values of \(k\), we get
\(
\frac{\sqrt{3} x-y}{4 \sqrt{3}}=\frac{4 \sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3} x+y}
\)
\(
\Rightarrow \quad 3 x^2-y^2=48
\)
\(\Rightarrow \quad \frac{x^2}{16}-\frac{y^2}{48}=1\), which is equation of hyperbola
\(\therefore \quad a^2=16\) and \(b^2=48\)
\(
\begin{array}{ll}
\Rightarrow & e^2=1+\frac{48}{16}=1+3=4 \\
\Rightarrow & e=2
\end{array}
\)
The equation of the circle having centre at \((3,-4)\) and touching the line \(5 x+12 y-12=0\) is
The perpendicular distance from centre \((3,-4)\) to the given line is, \(r=\frac{|5(3)+12(-4)-12|}{\sqrt{25+144}}=\frac{45}{13}\), which is radius of the circle So, the required equation of the circle is \((x-3)^2+(y+4)^2=\left(\frac{45}{13}\right)^2\).
The equation of the circle circumscribing the triangle whose sides are the lines \(y=x+2,3 y=4 x, 2 y=3 x\) is
Given equation of line are:
\(
\begin{aligned}
& y=x+2 \dots(i) \\
& 3 y=4 x \dots(ii) \\
& 2 y=3 x \dots(iii)
\end{aligned}
\)
Solving these lines, we get points of intersection \(A(6,8), B(4,6)\) and \(C(0,0)\).
Let the equation of circle circumscribing the given triangle be
\(
x^2+y^2+2 g x+2 f y+c=0
\)
Since the points \(A(6,9), B(4,6)\) and \(C(0,0)\) lie on this circle, we have
\(
36+64+12 g+16 f+c=0
\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \Rightarrow \quad 12 g+16 f+c=-100 \dots(iv) \\
& \text { Also, } 16+36+8 g+12 f+c=0 \\
& \Rightarrow \quad 8 g+12 f+c=–52 \dots(v)\\
& \text { And } \quad c=0 \dots(vi)
\end{aligned}
\)
Putting \(c=0\) in Eqs. (iv) and (v), we get
\(
\text { and } \quad \begin{aligned}
& 3 g+4 f=-25 \\
& 2 g+3 f=-13
\end{aligned}
\)
On solving these, we get \(g=-23\) and \(f=11\).
So, the equation of circle is:
\(
\Rightarrow \quad \begin{aligned}
& x^2+y^2-46 x+22 y+0=0 \\
& x^2+y^2-46 x+22 y=0
\end{aligned}
\)
An ellipse is described by using an endless string which is passed over two pins. If the axes are \(6 cm\) and \(4 cm\), the length of the string and distance between the pins are
Let equation of the ellipse be \(\frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1\).
According to the question, \(a=3\) and \(b=2\)
Now, \(b^2=a^2\left(1-e^2\right)\)
\(
\begin{array}{ll}
\therefore & e^2=1-\frac{b^2}{a^2}=1-\frac{4}{9}=\frac{5}{9} \\
\therefore & e=\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}
\end{array}
\)
From the definition of the ellipse.for any point \(P\) on the ellipse, we have \(S P+S^{\prime} P=2 a, \quad\) where \(S\) and \(S^{\prime}\) are foci.
\(\therefore\) Length of the endless string \(=S P+S^{\prime} P+S S^{\prime}\)
\(
=2 a+2 a e=2(3)+2(3) \times \frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}=6+2 \sqrt{5}
\)
The equation of the ellipse having foci \((0,1),(0,-1)\) and minor axis of length 1 is
Given that, foci of the ellipse are \((0, \pm b e) \equiv(0, \pm 1)\)
\(
\therefore \quad b e=1
\)
Length of minor axis, \(2 a=1 \Rightarrow a=\frac{1}{2}\)
Now \(a^2=b^2\left(1-e^2\right)\)
\(
\Rightarrow \quad \frac{1}{4}=b^2-b^2 e^2=b^2-1 \Rightarrow b^2=\frac{5}{4}
\)
So, the equation of ellipse is \(\frac{x^2}{1 / 4}+\frac{y^2}{5 / 4}=1\) or \(4 x^2+\frac{4 y^2}{5}=1\)
The equation of the parabola having focus at \((-1,-2)\) and the directrix \(x-2 y+3=0\) is
Given that, focus at \(S(-1,-2)\) and directrix is \(x-2 y+3=0\)
Let any point on the parabola be \(P(x, y)\).
\(\therefore\) Length of perpendicular from \(S\) on the directrix \(=S P\)
\(
\begin{array}{ll}
\Rightarrow & \frac{(x-2 y+3)^2}{5}=(x+1)^2+(y+2)^2 \\
\Rightarrow & 5\left[x^2+2 x+1+y^2+4 y+4\right]=x^2+4 y^2+9-4 x y-12 y+6 x \\
\Rightarrow & 4 x^2+y^2+4 x+32 y+16=0
\end{array}
\)
The equation of the hyperbola with vertices at \((0, \pm 6)\) and eccentricity \(\frac{5}{3}\) is _____ and its foci are ____.
Let the equation of parabola be \(\frac{x^2}{a^2}-\frac{y^2}{b^2}=-1\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& b=6 \\
& e=5 / 3 \\
& a^2=b^2\left(e^2-1\right) \\
& a^2=64 \\
& \frac{x^2}{64}-\frac{y^2}{36}=-1
\end{aligned}
\)
foci \(=(0, \pm b e) \equiv\left(0, \pm \frac{5}{3} \times 6\right)=(0, \pm 10)\)
The area of the circle centred at \((1,2)\) and passing through \((4,6)\) is
Given that the centre of the circle is \((1,2)\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \text { Radius of the circle }=\sqrt{(4-1)^2+(6-2)^2} \\
& =\sqrt{9+16} \\
& =5
\end{aligned}
\)
So, the area of the circle \(=\pi r^2\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& =\pi \times(5)^2 \\
& =25 \pi
\end{aligned}
\)
Equation of a circle which passes through \((3,6)\) and touches the axes is
Since circle touches both axis
\(\Rightarrow\) equations of circle is of the form
\(
(x-a)^2+(y-a)^2=a^2
\)
i.e. \(x^2+a^2-2 a x+y^2-2 a y+a^2=a^2\)
i.e. \(x^2+y^2-2 a x-2 a y+a^2=0\)
Since circle passes through \((3,6)\)
\(
\Rightarrow(3)^2+(6)^2-2 a(3)-2 a(6)+a^2=0
\)
i.e. \(9+36-6 a-12 a+a^2=0\)
i.e. \(a^2-18 a+45=0\)
i.e. \(a^2-15 a-3 a+45=0\)
i.e. \(a (a-15)-3(a-15)=0\)
i.e. \(a=3\) or \(a=15\)
i.e. \((x-3)^2+(y-3)^2=9\)
i.e. \(x^2+y^2-2 \times 3 x-6 y+9=0\)
i.e. \(x^2+y^2-6 x-6 y+9=0\)
Equation of the circle with centre on the \(y\)-axis and passing through the origin and the point \((2,3)\) is
Circle with center as \(y\)-axis is of the form
\(
x^2+(y-b)^2=r^2
\)
also given, circle passes through origin
\(
\Rightarrow 0^2+\left(O-b^2\right)=r^2
\)
i.e \(r^2=b^2\)
i.e. equation of circle reduces to,
\(
x^2+(y-b)^2=b^2
\)
i.e. \(x^2+y^2-2 b y+b^2=b^2\)
i.e. \(x^2+y^2-2 b y=0\)
Given circle passes through \((2,3)\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \Rightarrow 4+9-2 b(3)=0 \\
& \text { i.e. } 6 b=13 \\
& \text { i.e. } b=13 / 6
\end{aligned}
\)
\(\therefore\) Equation of circle is \(x^2+y^2-2(13 / 6) y=0\)
i.e. \(3 x^2+3 y^2-13 y=0\)
Alternate: Centre of the circle lies on the \(y\)-axis.
So, let the centre be \(C(0, k)\).
Circle passes through \(O(0,0)\) and \(A(2,3)\).
\(
\begin{array}{ll}
\therefore & O C^2=A C^2 \\
\Rightarrow & k^2=(2-0)^2+(3-k)^2 \quad \Rightarrow k=13 / 6 \\
\therefore & \text { Centre } \equiv(0,13 / 6) \text { and radius }=13 / 6
\end{array}
\)
So, equation of the required circle is:
\(
\begin{aligned}
& (x-0)^2+(y-13 / 6)^2=(13 / 6)^2 \\
\Rightarrow \quad & 3 x^2+3 y^2-13 y=0 .
\end{aligned}
\)
The equation of a circle with origin as centre and passing through the vertices of an equilateral triangle whose median is of length \(3 a\) is
Given, median of the equilateral triangle is 3a say LD
In \(\triangle\) LMD, we have
\(
\begin{aligned}
& ( LM )^2=( LD )^2+( MD )^2 \\
& \Rightarrow( LM )^2=9 a ^2+\left(\frac{ LM }{2}\right)^2 & \Rightarrow \frac{3}{4}( LM )^2=9 a ^2 & \Rightarrow( LM )^2=12 a ^2
\end{aligned}
\)
Again in triangle \(OMD\),
\(
\begin{aligned}
& (O M)^2=(O D)^2+(M D)^2 \\
& \Rightarrow R^2=(3 a-R)^2+\left(\frac{L M}{2}\right)^2 \\
& \Rightarrow R^2=9 a^2+R^2-6 a R+3 a^2 & \Rightarrow 6 a R=12 a^2 & \Rightarrow R=2 a
\end{aligned}
\)
So, equation of circle is
\(
\begin{aligned}
& (x-0)^2+(y-0)^2=(2 a)^2 & \Rightarrow x^2+y^2=4 a^2
\end{aligned}
\)
Alternate: \(\Rightarrow x^2+y^2=r^2\) is the required equation and since above circle passes through the vertices of equilateral triangle with medium \(3 a\). The centroid of an equilateral triangle is the center of its circumcircle and the radius of the circle is the distance of any vertex from centroid.
i. e. radius of circle=distance of centroid from any vertex
\(
\begin{aligned}
& =\frac{2}{3}(\text { median }) \\
& =\frac{2}{3}(3 a)(\text { given medium }=3 a)
\end{aligned}
\)
i.e. radius of circle \(=2 a\) \(\therefore\) equation of circle is \(x^2+y^2=(2 a)^2\)
If the focus of a parabola is \((0,-3)\) and its directrix is \(y=3\), then its equation is
Let \((h, k)\) be any point on the curve.
Distance of this point from the focus \(=\sqrt{( h -0)^2+( k -(-3))^2}\)
Distance of point \((h, k)\) from the directrix \(=\frac{k-3}{1}=k-3\)
Any point on the parabola is equidistant from its focus and dirextrix.
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \Rightarrow \sqrt{( h – o )^2+( k -(-3))^2}= k -3 \\
& \Rightarrow \sqrt{ h ^2+( k +3)^2}= k -3
\end{aligned}
\)
Squaring the above equation, we get
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \Rightarrow h^2+(k+3)^2=(k-3)^2 \\
& \Rightarrow h^2+k^2+6 k+9=k^2-6 k+9 \\
& \Rightarrow h^2=-12 k
\end{aligned}
\)
Subtitute \(k=y\) and \(h=x\), we get
\(
\Rightarrow x^2=-12 y
\)
If the parabola \(y^2=4 a x\) passes through the point \((3,2)\), then the length of its latus rectum is
Given that, parabola is \(y^2=4 a x\)
\(\therefore\) Length of latusrectum \(=4\) a
Since,the parabola passes through the point \((3,2)\)
Then, \(4=4 a(3)\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \Rightarrow a=\frac{1}{3} \\
& \Rightarrow 4 a=\frac{4}{3}
\end{aligned}
\)
If the vertex of the parabola is the point \((-3,0)\) and the directrix is the line \(x+5=0\), then its equation is
(a) Given that vertex \(\equiv(-3,0)\) and directrix, \(x+5=0\)
So, focus \(\equiv S(-1,0)\)
For any point of parabola \(P(x, y)\), we have
\(
\begin{array}{ll}
& S P=P M \\
\Rightarrow & \sqrt{(x+1)^2+y^2}=|x+5| \Rightarrow x^2+2 x+1+y^2=x^2+10 x+25 \\
\Rightarrow & y^2=8 x+24 \Rightarrow y^2=8(x+3)
\end{array}
\)
The equation of the ellipse whose focus is \((1,-1)\), the directrix the line \(x-y-3\) \(=0\) and eccentricity \(\frac{1}{2}\) is
(a) Given that, focus of the ellipse is \(S(1,-1)\) and the equation of directrix is
\(
x-y-3=0
\)
Also, \(e=\frac{1}{2}\)
From definition of ellipse, for any point \(P(x, y)\) on the ellipse, we have \(S P=e P M\), where \(M\) is foot of the perpendicular from point \(P\) to the directrix.
\(
\begin{array}{ll}
\therefore & \sqrt{(x-1)^2+(y+1)^2}=\frac{1}{2} \frac{|x-y-3|}{\sqrt{2}} \\
\Rightarrow & 8 x^2-16 x+16+8 y^2+16 y=x^2+y^2+9-2 x y+6 y-6 x \\
\Rightarrow & 7 x^2+7 y^2+2 x y-10 x+10 y+7=0
\end{array}
\)
The length of the latus rectum of the ellipse \(3 x^2+y^2=12\) is
(d) Given ellipse is:
\(
\begin{array}{ll}
& 3 x^2+y^2=12 \\
\Rightarrow & \frac{x^2}{4}+\frac{y^2}{12}=1 \\
\therefore \quad & a^2=4 \Rightarrow a=2 \\
\text { and } \quad & b^2=12 \Rightarrow b=2 \sqrt{3}
\end{array}
\)
Since \(b>a\), length of latus rectum \(=\frac{2 a^2}{b}=\frac{2 \times 4}{2 \sqrt{3}}=\frac{4}{\sqrt{3}}\)
If \(e\) is the eccentricity of the ellipse \(\frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1(a<b)\), then
(b) Given that, \(\frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{\dot{y}^2}{b^2}=1, a<b\)
We know that, \(a^2=b^2\left(1-e^2\right)\)
The eccentricity of the hyperbola whose latus rectum is 8 and conjugate axis is equal to half of the distance between the foci is
(c) Let the equation of the hyperbola be \(\frac{x^2}{a^2}-\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1\).
Length of latus rectum \(=8\)
\(
\therefore \quad \frac{2 b^2}{a}=8 \quad \Rightarrow \quad b^2=4 a \dots(i)
\)
Conjugate axis \(=\) half of the distance between the foci
\(
\therefore \quad 2 b=a e \dots(ii)
\)
Now, \(\quad b^2=a^2\left(e^2-1\right) \dots(iii)\)
From Eqs. (i) and (iii), we get
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \frac{a^2 e^2}{4}=a^2\left(e^2-1\right) \\
\Rightarrow \quad & e^2=4 e^2-4 \Rightarrow e^2=\frac{4}{3} \Rightarrow e=\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}
\end{aligned}
\)
The distance between the foci of a hyperbola is 16 and its eccentricity is \(\sqrt{2}\). Its equation is
Let equation of hyperbola be \(\frac{x^2}{a^2}-\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1 \ldots(i)\)
According to the given condition, \(2 a e=16[latex] and [latex]e=\sqrt{2}\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \therefore 2 a(\sqrt{2})=16 \\
& \Rightarrow a=\frac{8}{\sqrt{2}} \\
& \Rightarrow a^2=32 \\
& \because b^2=a^2\left(e^2-1\right)=32(2-1)=32
\end{aligned}
\)
On putting the values of \(a^2\) and \(b^2\) in (i), we get
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \frac{x^2}{32}-\frac{y^2}{32}=1 \\
& \Rightarrow x^2-y^2=32
\end{aligned}
\)
Equation of the hyperbola with eccentricty \(\frac{3}{2}\) and foci at \(( \pm 2,0)\) is
Given that \(e =\frac{3}{2}\) and foci at \(( \pm 2,0)\)
We know that foci \(=( \pm ae , 0)\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \therefore ae =2 \\
& \Rightarrow a \times \frac{3}{2}=2 \\
& \Rightarrow a=\frac{4}{3} \\
& \Rightarrow a^2=\frac{16}{9}
\end{aligned}
\)
We know that \(b^2=a^2\left(e^2-1\right)\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \Rightarrow b^2=\frac{16}{9}\left(\frac{9}{4}-1\right) \\
& =\frac{16}{9} \times \frac{5}{4} \\
& =\frac{20}{9}
\end{aligned}
\)
So, the equation of the hyperbola is \(\frac{x^2}{\frac{16}{9}}-\frac{y^2}{\frac{20}{9}}=1\)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \Rightarrow \frac{9 x^2}{16}-\frac{9 y^2}{20}=1 \\
& \Rightarrow \frac{x^2}{4}-\frac{y^2}{5}=\frac{4}{9}
\end{aligned}
\)
Hence, the required equation is \(\frac{x^2}{4}-\frac{y^2}{5}=\frac{4}{9}\).
