If the circle \(x^2+y^2+2 g x+2 f y+c=0(c>0)\) touches both the coordinate axes and lies in the third quadrant, then the length of the chord intercepted by the circle on the line \(x+y+\sqrt{c}=0\) is

  1. A \(\sqrt{2 \mathrm{C}}\)
  2. B \(\mathrm{C}\)
  3. C \(\sqrt{\mathrm{C}}\)
  4. D \(\sqrt{\frac{c}{2}}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\sqrt{2 \mathrm{C}}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given equation of circle \[ x^2+y^2+2 g x+2 f y+c=0 \quad(c>0) \] Coordinate of centre \(=(-g,-f)\) \[ \text { radius }=\sqrt{g^2+f^2-c} \] Circle touch both the axes, so \[ \begin{aligned} g^2 & =f^2=c \Rightarrow g= \pm \sqrt{c} \\ f & = \pm \sqrt{c} \end{aligned} \] So,…
