Question

A straight line L1:x2y+10=0 meets the circle with equation x2+y2=100 at B in the first quadrant. If another line L2 through B is perpendicular to L1 and cuts yaxis at P(0,t), then the value of t is

Solution


Line L1:x2y+10=0
Perpendicular line to L1 is 2x+y+λ=0
Now, as B is 90, so L2 must pass through (10,0)
20+0+λ=0λ=20
Now, 2x+y20=0
0+t20=0t=20
