Let \(\mathrm{C}\) be the centre and \(\mathrm{A}\) be one end of a diameter of the circle \(x^2+y^2-2 x-4 y-20=0\). If \(P\) is a point on \(A C\) such that \(\mathrm{A}\) divides \(\mathrm{CP}\) in the ratio \(2: 3\), then the locus of \(\mathrm{P}\) is

  1. A \(x^2+y^2-2 x-4 y-205=0\)
  2. B \(2 x^2+2 y^2-4 x-8 y-405=0\)
  3. C \(x^2+y^2-2 x-4 y-450=0\)
  4. D \(4 x^2+4 y^2-8 x-16 y-605=0\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(4 x^2+4 y^2-8 x-16 y-605=0\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The centre of cirlce \(x^2+y^2-2 x-4 y-20=0\) is \(\mathrm{C}(1,2)\) A.T. Q \[ \mathrm{A}(\mathrm{x}, \mathrm{y})=\left(\frac{2 \mathrm{~h}+3}{5}, \frac{2 \mathrm{k}+6}{5}\right) \] Putting the value of \(x\) and \(y\) in equation (i)…
