Correct answer: C, B

  1. Write the given circles in standard form

    Let the required circle SSS have centre (h,k)(h,k)(h,k) and radius rrr. Then S: (x−h)2+(y−k)2=r2.S:\ (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2.S: (x−h)2+(y−k)2=r2.

    The given circles are:

    • C1:(x−1)2+y2=16C_1:(x-1)^2+y^2=16C1​:(x−1)2+y2=16 so its centre is (1,0)(1,0)(1,0) and radius is 444.

    • C2:x2+y2=1C_2:x^2+y^2=1C2​:x2+y2=1 so its centre is (0,0)(0,0)(0,0) and radius is 111.

  2. Use orthogonality condition

    Two circles with centres distance ddd and radii r1,r2r_1,r_2r1​,r2​ are orthogonal if d2=r12+r22.d^2=r_1^2+r_2^2.d2=r12​+r22​.

    So for circle S(h,k,r)S(h,k,r)S(h,k,r):

    With C2C_2C2​

    Distance squared between centres: h2+k2=r2+1.(1)h^2+k^2=r^2+1. \qquad (1)h2+k2=r2+1.(1)

    With C1C_1C1​

    Distance squared between centres: (h−1)2+k2=r2+16.(2)(h-1)^2+k^2=r^2+16. \qquad (2)(h−1)2+k2=r2+16.(2)

  3. Subtract (1) from (2)

    [(h−1)2+k2]−[h2+k2]=(r2+16)−(r2+1)[(h-1)^2+k^2] - [h^2+k^2] = (r^2+16)-(r^2+1)[(h−1)2+k2]−[h2+k2]=(r2+16)−(r2+1) h2−2h+1−h2=15h^2-2h+1-h^2=15h2−2h+1−h2=15 −2h+1=15-2h+1=15−2h+1=15 −2h=14-2h=14−2h=14 h=−7.h=-7.h=−7.

  4. Use the fact that the circle passes through (0,1)(0,1)(0,1)

    Since (0,1)(0,1)(0,1) lies on SSS, (0−h)2+(1−k)2=r2.(0-h)^2+(1-k)^2=r^2.(0−h)2+(1−k)2=r2. Substituting h=−7h=-7h=−7, 49+(1−k)2=r2.(3)49+(1-k)^2=r^2. \qquad (3)49+(1−k)2=r2.(3)

  5. Use equation (1)

    From (1), with h=−7h=-7h=−7: (−7)2+k2=r2+1(-7)^2+k^2=r^2+1(−7)2+k2=r2+1 49+k2=r2+149+k^2=r^2+149+k2=r2+1 r2=48+k2.(4)r^2=48+k^2. \qquad (4)r2=48+k2.(4)

  6. Equate (3) and (4)

    49+(1−k)2=48+k249+(1-k)^2=48+k^249+(1−k)2=48+k2 49+1−2k+k2=48+k249+1-2k+k^2=48+k^249+1−2k+k2=48+k2 50−2k=4850-2k=4850−2k=48 −2k=−2-2k=-2−2k=−2 k=1.k=1.k=1.

    Hence the centre is (−7,1).(-7,1).(−7,1).

  7. Find the radius

    Using (4): r2=48+1=49r^2=48+1=49r2=48+1=49 r=7.r=7.r=7.

  8. Check the options

    • A: radius of SSS is 8 → False
    • B: radius of SSS is 7 → True
    • C: centre of SSS is (−7,1)(-7,1)(−7,1) → True
    • D: centre of SSS is (−8,1)(-8,1)(−8,1) → False

Therefore the correct options are: B,C\boxed{B, C}B,C​

  1. Compare with stored correct answer

    Stored correct answer: C, B

    This is the same set of correct options as {B,C}\{B,C\}{B,C}, so the derived answer agrees.
