The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the conditions under which the line \( y = Mx + C \) is a common tangent to both the circle \( x^2 + y^2 = 3 \) and the hyperbola \( \frac{x^2}{64} - \frac{y^2}{100} = 1 \). ### Step 1: Find the relation for the circle The equation of the circle is given by \( x^2 + y^2 = 3 \). The condition for a line \( y = mx + c \) to be a tangent to the circle can be derived from the formula: \[ c^2 = r^2(1 + m^2) \] where \( r \) is the radius of the circle. Here, \( r^2 = 3 \), so we have: \[ c^2 = 3(1 + m^2) \tag{1} \] ### Step 2: Find the relation for the hyperbola The equation of the hyperbola is given by \( \frac{x^2}{64} - \frac{y^2}{100} = 1 \). The condition for a line \( y = mx + c \) to be a tangent to the hyperbola is: \[ c^2 = a^2 m^2 - b^2 \] where \( a^2 = 64 \) and \( b^2 = 100 \). Therefore, we have: \[ c^2 = 64m^2 - 100 \tag{2} \] ### Step 3: Set the two equations for \( c^2 \) equal to each other Since both equations represent \( c^2 \), we can set them equal: \[ 3(1 + m^2) = 64m^2 - 100 \] ### Step 4: Simplify the equation Expanding and rearranging gives: \[ 3 + 3m^2 = 64m^2 - 100 \] \[ 3 + 100 = 64m^2 - 3m^2 \] \[ 103 = 61m^2 \] \[ m^2 = \frac{103}{61} \] ### Step 5: Find \( c^2 \) Now that we have \( m^2 \), we can substitute it back into either equation (1) or (2) to find \( c^2 \). We will use equation (1): \[ c^2 = 3(1 + \frac{103}{61}) = 3\left(\frac{61 + 103}{61}\right) = 3\left(\frac{164}{61}\right) = \frac{492}{61} \] ### Conclusion Thus, the values we have derived are: - \( m^2 = \frac{103}{61} \) - \( c^2 = \frac{492}{61} \) Now we can check which of the given statements in the options is true based on these results.
