JEE Mains · Maths · 10. Circle
Let a circle \(C\) have its centre in the first quadrant, intersect the coordinate axes at exactly three points and cut off equal intercepts from the coordinate axes. If the length of the chord of \(C\) on the line \(x + y = 1\) is \(\sqrt{14}\), then the square of the radius of \(C\) is _______.
- A 2
- B 4
- C 6
- D 8
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) 8
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Let the equation of the circle be \(x^2 + y^2 + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0\). Since the circle intersects the coordinate axes at exactly three points, it must pass through the origin and intersect each axis at one other distinct point. Thus, \(c = 0\). The lengths of the intercepts on…
