The area (in \(sq. units\)) of the smaller of the two circles that touch the parabola, \(y^2 = 4x\) at the points \((1, 2)\) and the axis is

  1. A \(4\pi \left( {2 - \sqrt 2 } \right)\)
  2. B \(8\pi \left( {3 - 2\sqrt 2 } \right)\)
  3. C \(4\pi \left( {3 + \sqrt 2 } \right)\)
  4. D \(8\pi \left( {2 - \sqrt 2 } \right)\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(8\pi \left( {3 - 2\sqrt 2 } \right)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Equation of tangent to the parabola \({y^2} = 4x\,\,at\) \(\left( {1,2} \right)\,\,\) is \(2y = 4\left( {\frac{{x + 1}}{2}} \right)\) \( \Rightarrow y = x + 1\) Equation of normal \(y = - x + 3\) Let center be \(C\left( {3 - r,r} \right)\) Now \(P{C^2} = {r^2}\)…
