Point on C 2 with ordinate − 2 is ( 3 , − 2 )
( Obtain this by putting y = − 2 in C 1 .) C 2 : y 2 = 4 x − 8 ⟹ d x d y = y 2 ⟹ ( d x d y ) y = − 2 = − 1 Since C 1 cuts C 2 orthogonally at ( 3 , − 2 ) , therefore normal to C 2 at this point will serve as a tangent to C 1 at sane point. Equation of this normal is: ( y − ( − 2 ) ) = 1 ( x − 3 ) ⟹ x − y − 5 = 0 This is the tangent to C 1 at ( 3 , − 2 ) . Using the concept of family of circles, eqn of circle for real variable λ is:
( x − 3 ) 2 + ( y + 2 ) 2 + λ ( x − y − 5 ) = 0
Since C 1 passes through ( 6 , 3 ) we can obtain λ = 1 7 . Hence:
C 1 : x 2 + y 2 + 1 1 x − 1 3 y − 7 2 = 0 Hence we get: g = 1 1 / 2 , f = − 1 3 / 2 , c = − 7 2 . Direct substitution in the required expression gives answer as 7 1 .
