The chord of the circle \(x^{2}+y^{2}-4 x=0\) which is bisected at \((1,0)\) is perpendicular to the line

  1. A \(y=x\)
  2. B \(x+y=0\)
  3. C \(\mathrm{x}=1\)
  4. D \(y=1\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(y=1\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, equation of circle
\[
x^{2}+y^{2}-4 x=0 \text {, bisect by }(1,0)
\]



Centre of circle \(=(2,0)\)
Radius of circle \(=2\)
From figure, \(\mathrm{AB}\) is the chord of circle which bisected by the point \((1,0)\) and perpendicular to the line \(\mathrm{y}=1\).
Because it is parallel to x-axis while chord is parallel to \(\mathrm{y}\)-axis.
