Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{y^2-x^2}{2 x y}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Here, it is given that circle touches the \(y\)-axis at origin. So, equation of family of circles \[ (x-a)^2+y^2=a^2 \] \(\Rightarrow \quad x^2+a^2-2 a x+y^2=a^2\) On differentiating w.r.t. \(x\), we get Now, from Eqs. \((i)\) and (ii), we get…
