If (-3, 2) lies on the circle x2 + y2 + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0, which is concentric with the circle x2 + y2 + 6x + By - 5 = 0, then c is equal to

  • 11

  • - 11

  • 24

  • 100

The eccentricity of the ellipse, which meets the straight line x7 + y2 = 1 on the axis of x and the staraight line x3 - y5 = 1 on the axis of y and whose axes lie along the axes of coordinate, is

  • 327

  • 267

  • 37

  • None of the above

If x2a2 + y2b2 = 1 a > b and x2 - y2 = c2 cut at right angles, then

  • a2 + b2 = 2c2

  • b2 - a2 = 2c2

  • a2 - b2 = 2c2

  • a2b2 = 2c2


C.

a2 - b2 = 2c2

Given, x2a2 + y2b2 = 1         ...(i)On differentiating w.r.t. x, we get   2xa2 + 2yb2 . dydx = 0 dydx = - xb2a2y and x2 - y2 = c2On differentiating w.r.t. x, we get2x - 2ydydx = 0        dydx = xy

The two curves will cut at right angles, ifdydxc1 × dydxc2 = - 1     - b2xa2y . xy = - 1                 x2a2 = y2b2      x2a2 = y2b2 = 1             using Eq. (i)

On substituting these values in x2 - y2 = c2, we get

  a22 - b22 = c2 a2 - b2 = 2c2
