    The radius of the sphere\[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}+{{z}^{2}}=12x+4y+3z\]is

    A) \[\frac{13}{2}\]                                

    B)  13

    C)  26                         

    D)         52

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Given equation of sphere is                 \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}+{{z}^{2}}-12x-4y-3z=0\] \[\therefore \]Centre of sphere is\[\left( 6,\,\,2,\,\,\frac{3}{2} \right)\]. \[\therefore \]Radius of sphere\[=\sqrt{{{(6)}^{2}}+{{(2)}^{2}}+{{\left( \frac{3}{2} \right)}^{2}}}\]                 \[=\sqrt{36+4+\frac{9}{4}}=\sqrt{\frac{169}{4}}\]                 \[=\frac{13}{2}\]
