Q.12. If a circle touches the straight lines
4
x
-
3
y
+
10
=
0
,
4
x
-
3
y
-
30
=
0
and one of its normal is 2x + y = 0, then the centre of the circle is at
(a) (- 3, 6)
(b) (3, - 6)
(c) (- 1, 2)
(d) (1, - 2)

Solution
Dear student
The
lines
4
x
-
3
y
+
10
=
0
.
.
.
.
(
1
)
and
4
x
-
3
y
-
30
=
0
.
.
.
(
2
)
are
parallel
and
are
touching
the
circle
.
It
is
given
that
the
centre
of
the
circle
lies
on
the
line
2
x
+
y
=
0
which
intersects
the
line
(
1
)
and
(
2
)
at
A
(
-
1
,
2
)
and
B
(
3
,
-
6
)
respectively
.
Therefore
,
the
centre
of
the
circle
is
the
mid
-
point
of
AB
.
So
,
the
coordinates
of
the
centre
are
