  • There are two circles C_(1) and C_2 whose radii are r_(1), r_(2) , respectively. If distance between their centre is 3r_(1) - r_(2) and length of direct common tangent is twice of the length of transverse common tangent. Then r_(1): r_(2) is:

    A
    `5:4`
    B
    `6:5`
    C
    `7:6`
    D
    `8:7`
  • Statement-1:If the line y=x+c intersects the circle x^2+y^2=r^2 in two real distinct points then -rsqrt2 lt c lt r sqrt2 Statement -2: If two circles intersects at two distinct points then C_1C_2 lt r_1+r_2
