Column I

Column II

(A) Number of common tangents of x²+y²-4x-6y-3=0 and x²+y²+2x+2y+1=0

(p) 2

(B) Common chord of x²+y²-4x-4y=0 and x²+y²=16 subtends angle π/k at origin; find k

(q) 0

(C) Shortest distance from (2,-7) to x²+y²-14x-10y-151=0

(r) 3

(D) Minimum of √(x²+y²), given (x+5)²+(y-12)²=14²

(s) 1

 

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

A: radii 4,1 and centre distance 5 give three tangents. B: the common chord is , at distance from the origin on the radius-4 circle, so its central angle is and . C: centre and radius 15; point-centre distance 13, so nearest distance 2. D: the circle has centre (-5, 12) at distance 13 from the origin and radius 14, so nearest distance 1.
