DSE Odisha TGT Science PCM Mock Test - 1 - Question 29

The circles x2+y2+6x+6y = 0 and x2+y2−12x−12y = 0

Detailed Solution: Question 29

Given equation of circles are
x2+y2+6x+6y=0....(i)
and x2+y2−12x−12y=0....(ii)
Here, g1 = 3,f2 = 3, g2 = −6 and f2 = −6
∴ Centres of circles are C1(−3,−3) and C2(6,6) respectively and radii are r1 = 3√2 and r2 = 6√2 respectively.
Now, C1C2 = √[(6+3)2 + (6+3)2]
= 9√2
and r1 + r2
​= 3(2)1/2 + 6(2)1/2
= 9(2)1/2
​⇒ C1C2 = r1 + r2
∴ Both circles touch each other externally.
