LetCbe the centre of the circlex2+y2-x+2y=114andPbe a point on the circle. A line passes through the pointC, makes an angle ofπ4with the lineCPand intersects the circle at the pointsQandR. Then the area of the trianglePQR(inunit2) is

Question diagram: Let C be the centre of the circle x 2 + y 2 - x + 2 y = 11 4

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

Given,

x2+y2-x+2y=114

On rearranging terms we get,

x-122+y+12=22

Now given in PQRPCR=π4 so PQR=2212 by circle property, radius is 2 so RC=QC=2

Now, PR=QRsin2212=4sinπ8

And PQ=QRcos2212=4cos2212

Now area of ΔPQR=12PR×PQ

=124sinπ84cosπ8

=4×2sinπ8cosπ8

=4sinπ4=42=22
