Question

If (−3, 2) lies on the circle x2 + y2 + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0 which is concentric with the circle x2 + y2 + 6x + 8y − 5 = 0, then c =
(a) 11
(b) −11
(c) 24
(d) none of these

Solution

(b) −11

The centre of the circle x2 + y2 + 6x + 8y − 5 = 0 is (−3, −4).

The circle x2 + y2 + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0 is concentric with the circle x2 + y2 + 6x + 8y − 5 = 0.
Thus, the centre of x2 + y2 + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0 is (−3, −4).
g=3, f=4

Also, it is given that (−3, 2) lies on the circle x2 + y2 + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0.
