The correct option is
C 4(x2−y2)=a2−b2For the rod of length b
the extremes point (o, q) and
(o, q + b) and for the rod of
length a the extreme points
(p,o) and (p, p + a). The center of
circle will be intersection between
the ⊥ eq bisectors of rods
with length a and b.
(x,y)=(p+a2,q+b2)
So
x=p+a2 y=q+b2
x−p=a2 y−q=b2 __(1)
Now we need radius
But distance between (x, y) and
(p,o) and also distance between
(x,y) and (o,q) so
(x−p)2+y2=x2+(y−q)2 __(2)
Now
(a2)2+y2=x2+(b2)2
a2−b24=x2−y2
a2−b2=4(x2−y2)
