Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C)
fixed radius 1 and variable centres along the \(\mathrm{X}\)-axis

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\[
\begin{aligned}
& \frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{\sqrt{1-y^2}}{y} \\
& \Rightarrow \quad \int \frac{y}{\sqrt{1-y^2}} d y=\int d x \\
& \Rightarrow \quad-\sqrt{1-y^2}=x+C \\
& \Rightarrow \quad(x+c)^2+y^2=1 \\
&
\end{aligned}
\]
Centre \((-C, 0)\) and radius \(=1\).
