JEE Mains · Maths · STD 11 - 10.1 circle and system of circle

Let \(C\) be a circle passing through the points \(A (2,-1)\) and \(B (3,4)\). The line segment \(AB\) is not a diameter of \(C\). If \(r\) is the radius of \(C\) and its centre lies on the circle \((x-5)^{2}+(y-1)^{2}=\frac{13}{2}\), then \(r^{2}\) is equal to

  1. A \(32\)
  2. B \(\frac{65}{2}\)
  3. C \(\frac{61}{2}\)
  4. D \(30\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\frac{65}{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(AB =\sqrt{26}\) \(r ^{2}= CM ^{2}+ AM ^{2}\) \(=\left(2 \times \sqrt{\frac{13}{2}}\right)^{2}+\left(\sqrt{\frac{13}{2}}\right)^{2}\) \(r ^{2}=\frac{65}{2}\)
