Two circles with equal radii intersecting at the points $(0, 1)$ and $(0, -1).$ The tangent at the point $(0, 1)$ to one of the circles passes through the centre of the other circle. Then the distance between the centres of these circles is
Give the number of common tangents to circle ${x^2} + {y^2} + 2x + 8y - 23 = 0$ and ${x^2} + {y^2} - 4x - 10y + 9 = 0$
Let the equation $x^{2}+y^{2}+p x+(1-p) y+5=0$ represent circles of varying radius $\mathrm{r} \in(0,5]$. Then the number of elements in the set $S=\left\{q: q=p^{2}\right.$ and $\mathrm{q}$ is an integer $\}$ is ..... .
Let $C$ be a circle passing through the points $A (2,-1)$ and $B (3,4)$. The line segment $AB$ is not a diameter of $C$. If $r$ is the radius of $C$ and its centre lies on the circle $(x-5)^{2}+(y-1)^{2}=\frac{13}{2}$, then $r^{2}$ is equal to
Let the circles $C_1:(x-\alpha)^2+(y-\beta)^2=r_1^2$ and $C_2:(x-8)^2+\left(y-\frac{15}{2}\right)^2=r_2^2$ touch each other externally at the point $(6,6)$. If the point $(6,6)$ divides the line segment joining the centres of the circles $C_1$ and $C_2$ internally in the ratio $2: 1$, then $(\alpha+\beta)+4\left(r_1^2+r_2^2\right)$ equals
