Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) -56

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let \(S_1 \equiv x^2+y^2+8 x+8 y-m=0\) \(S_2=x^2+y^2-2 x+4 y+n=0\) Equation of common chord \(\begin{aligned} \Rightarrow & & S_1-S_2 & =0 \\ \Rightarrow & & 10 x+4 y-(m+n) & =0 \\ \Rightarrow & & 10 x+4 y & =(m+n) \end{aligned}\) Centre of bisected circle is \((-4,-4)\) which…
