Question:

The equation of the circle which cuts all the three circles \[ 4(x-1)^2 + 4(y-1)^2 = 1,
4(x+1)^2 + 4(y-1)^2 = 1,
4(x+1)^2 + 4(y+1)^2 = 1, \] orthogonally is?

Show Hint

Use the condition for two circles cutting orthogonally and solve simultaneous conditions.

  • \(4x^2 + 4y^2 = 49\)
  • \(4(x-1)^2 + 4(y+1)^2 = 1\)
  • \((x-1)^2 + (y+1)^2 = 4\)
  • \(4x^2 + 4y^2 = 7\)

The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Circles are given, and the required circle cuts all orthogonally. Using orthogonality condition between circles: \[ 2 g g_1 + 2 f f_1 = c + c_1, \] solve to find required circle equation as \[ 4x^2 + 4y^2 = 7. \]
