The radical axis of circles
`x^(2) + y^(2) + 5x + 4y - 5 = 0` and
`x^(2) + y^(2) - 3x + 5y - 6 = 0` is

A

8y - x + 1 = 0

B

8x - y + 1 = 0

C

8x - 8y + 1 = 0

D

y - 8x + 1 = 0

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Given circles are, `S = x^(2) + y^(2) + 5x + 4y - 5 = 0` and
`S^(1) = x^(2) + y^(2) - 3x + 5y - 6 = 0`
Equation of radical axis `S - S. = 0`
`implies x^(2) + y^(2) + 5x + 4y - 5 - x^(2) y^(2) + 3x - 5y + 6 = 0`
`:. 8x - y + 1 = 0`
