10-1.Circle and System of Circles
easy
If the lengths of the chords intercepted by the circle ${x^2} + {y^2} + 2gx + 2fy = 0$ from the co-ordinate axes be $10$ and $24$ respectively, then the radius of the circle is..
A
$17$
B
$9$
C
$14$
D
$13$
Solution
(d) Given $2\sqrt {{g^2}} = 10$
$\Rightarrow \;|g|\; = 5$
and $2\sqrt {{f^2}} = 24$
$\Rightarrow \;|f|\; = 12$
Therefore, radius is $\sqrt {{5^2} + {{12}^2}} = 13$.
