    The equation of the circle passing through the point (1,2) and through the points of intersection of\[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}-4x-6y-21=0\]and \[3x+4y+5=0\] is given by   JEE Main Online Paper (Held On 07 May 2012)

    A) \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}+2x=2y+11=0\]

    B)                        \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}-2x+2y-7=0\]

    C)                        \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}-2x-2y-3=0\]

    D)                        \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}+2x+2y-11=0\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                    Point (1,2) lies on the circle \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}+2x+2y\]\[-11=0,\] because coordinates of point (1,2) satisfy the equation\[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}+2x+2y-11=0\] Now,\[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}-4x-6y-21=0\]                ?(i) \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}+2x+2y-11=0\]                         ?(ii) \[3x+4y+5=0\]                                                   ?(iii) From (i) and (iii), \[{{x}^{2}}+{{\left( -\frac{3x+5}{4} \right)}^{2}}-4x-6\left( \frac{3x+5}{4} \right)-21=0\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[+72x+120-336=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[25{{x}^{2}}+38x-191=0\]                                           ?.(iv) From (ii) and (iii), \[{{x}^{2}}+{{\left( \frac{3x+5}{4} \right)}^{2}}+2x+2\left( -\frac{3x+5}{4} \right)-11=0\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[-24x-40-176=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[25{{x}^{2}}+38x-191=0\]                                           ?(v) Thus we get the same equation from (ii) and (iii) as we get from equation (i) and (iii). Hence the point of intersections of (ii) and (iii) will be same as the point of intersections of (i) and (iii). Therefore the circle (ii) passing through the point of intersection of circlet) and point (1, 2) also as shown in the figure Hence equation(ii) i.e. is the equation of required circle.
