The common tangents to the circles x^(2)...

The common tangents to the circles `x^(2) +y^(2) +2x = 0` and `x^(2) +y^(2) -6x= 0` from a triangle which is `:`

A

`3sqrt(3)-(pi)/(3)`

B

`4sqrt(3)-(11pi)/(3)`

C

`4sqrt(3)-(pi)/(3)`

D

`3sqrt(3)-(11pi)/(6)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Length of DCT `(PQ)=sqrt((C_(1)C_(2))^(2)-(r_(1)-r_(2))^(2))`
`=sqrt(16-4)=2sqrt(3)`
Area of quadrilateral
`PQC_(2)C_(1)=(1)/(2)xx(1+3)xx2sqrt(3)=4sqrt(3)`
`C_(1)m=2sqrt(33)`

Applying cosine formula in `DeltaC_(1)M_(1)C_(2)`, we get
`becauseanglePC_(1)R=(2pi)/(3) & angleQC_(2)R=(pi)/(3)`
Area of circular sector `RC_(1)P=(1)/(2)xx(2pi)/(3)=(pi)/(3)`
Area of circular sector `RC_(2)Q=(1)/(2)xx(pi)/(3)xx9=(3pi)/(2)`
`because` required area
`=4sqrt(3)-(pi)/(3)-(3pi)/(2)=4sqrt(3)-(11pi)/(6)`
