Let the circle S : 36x2 + 36y2 108x + 120y + C = 0 be such that it neither intersects nor touches the co-ordinate axes. If the point of intersection of the lines, x 2y = 4 and 2x y = 5 lies inside the circle S, then :
- A
- B100 < C < 165
- C81 < C < 156

Correct answer: D
- Write the circle in standard form
Given Divide by :
Compare with So,
Hence center is
Radius satisfies Taking LCM ,
So,
- Condition: circle neither intersects nor touches the coordinate axes
For a circle to neither touch nor intersect an axis, its radius must be less than the perpendicular distance of the center from that axis.
- Distance from center to -axis:
- Distance from center to -axis:
Therefore, The stricter condition is
So,
Also, for a real circle,
From this condition alone:
- Find the intersection point of the lines
Given lines:
Solve them.
From first equation, Substitute into second: Then
So the point is
- Condition: this point lies inside the circle
Distance from center to point :
Thus,
For the point to lie inside the circle,
- Combine both conditions
From axis condition: From inside-point condition:
Therefore,
- Check options
- A: , false
- B: , too wide
- C: , too wide
- D: , correct
Hence the correct option is:
