If the lines 2x – 3y – 5 = 0 and 3x – 4y – 7 = 0 are the diameters of a circle, then its centre is: (a) (-1, 1) (b) (1, 1) (c) (1, -1) (d) (-1, -1) |

Answer» (c) (1, -1) To get centre we must solve the given equations 2x – 3y – 5 = 0 … (1) 3x – 4y – 7 = 0 … (2) (1) x 3 ⇒ 6x – 9y = 15 (2) x 2 ⇒ 6x – 8y = 14 Subtracting, -y = 1 ⇒ y = -1 Using y = -1 in (1) we get 2x + 3 – 5 = 0 ⇒ 2x = 2 ⇒ x = 1 |
