JEE Advanced · Mathematics · 12. Circle
The straight line \(2 x-3 y=1\) divides the circular region \(x^2+y^2 \leq 6\) into two parts. If \(S=\left\{\left(2, \frac{3}{4}\right),\left(\frac{5}{2}, \frac{3}{4}\right),\left(\frac{1}{4},-\frac{1}{4}\right),\left(\frac{1}{8}, \frac{1}{4}\right)\right\}\), then the number of point(s) in \(S\) lying inside the smaller part is
- A 1
- B 2
- C 3
- D 5

Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(x^2+y^2 \leq 6\) and \(2 x-3 y=1\) is shown as, For the point to lie in the shaded part, origin and the point lie on opposite side of straight line \(L\).

\(\therefore\) For any point in shaded part \(L>0\) and for any point inside the circle \(S < 0\).
Now, for \(\left(2, \frac{3}{4}\right) L: 2 x-3 y-1\)
\[
L: 4-\frac{9}{4}-1=\frac{3}{4}>0
\]
and \(S: x^2+y^2-6\),
\[
S: 4+\frac{9}{16}-6 < 0
\]
\(\Rightarrow\left(2 \frac{3}{4}\right)\) lies in shaded part.
For \(\left(\frac{5}{2}, \frac{3}{4}\right) L: 5-9-1 < 0 \quad\) [neglect]
For \(\left.\left(\frac{1}{4},-\frac{1}{4}\right) L: \frac{1}{2}+\frac{3}{4}-1>0\right\}\)
\(\therefore\left(\frac{1}{4},-\frac{1}{4}\right)\) lies in the shaded part. For \(\left(\frac{1}{8}, \frac{1}{4}\right) L: \frac{1}{4}-\frac{3}{4}-1 < 0\) [neglect] \(\Rightarrow\) Only 2 points lie in the shaded part.

\(\therefore\) For any point in shaded part \(L>0\) and for any point inside the circle \(S < 0\).
Now, for \(\left(2, \frac{3}{4}\right) L: 2 x-3 y-1\)
\[
L: 4-\frac{9}{4}-1=\frac{3}{4}>0
\]
and \(S: x^2+y^2-6\),
\[
S: 4+\frac{9}{16}-6 < 0
\]
\(\Rightarrow\left(2 \frac{3}{4}\right)\) lies in shaded part.
For \(\left(\frac{5}{2}, \frac{3}{4}\right) L: 5-9-1 < 0 \quad\) [neglect]
For \(\left.\left(\frac{1}{4},-\frac{1}{4}\right) L: \frac{1}{2}+\frac{3}{4}-1>0\right\}\)
\(\therefore\left(\frac{1}{4},-\frac{1}{4}\right)\) lies in the shaded part. For \(\left(\frac{1}{8}, \frac{1}{4}\right) L: \frac{1}{4}-\frac{3}{4}-1 < 0\) [neglect] \(\Rightarrow\) Only 2 points lie in the shaded part.
