10-1.Circle and System of Circles
medium
The points of intersection of the circles ${x^2} + {y^2} = 25$and ${x^2} + {y^2} - 8x + 7 = 0$ are
A
$(4, 3)$ and $(4, -3)$
B
$(4, -3) $ and $ (-4, -3)$
C
$(-4, 3)$ and $ (4, 3)$
D
$(4, 3) $ and $(3, 4)$
Solution
(a) ${x^2} + {y^2} = 25$ .….$(i)$
${x^2} + {y^2} – 8x + 7 = 0$ .….$(ii)$
From $(i)$ and $(ii),$ we get
$8x = 7 + 25$ or $x = 4$ and for $x = 4$, we get $y = \pm 3$.
Hence points of intersection are $(4, 3), (4, -3).$
