The equation of the circle with AB as its diameter is

A

`x^(2)+y^(2)-12x+24=0`

B

`x^(2)+y^(2)+12x+24=0`

C

`x^(2)+y^(2)+24x-12=0`

D

`x^(2)+y^(2)-24x-12=0`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

A point on the hyperbola is `(3 sec theta, 2 tan theta)`.
It lies on the circle. S, `9 sec^(2) theta+4 tan^(2) theta-24 sec theta=0`.
`"i.e., "13 sec^(2) theta-24 sec theta-4=0`
`"or "sec theta =2,-(2)/(13)`
Clearly circle cuts the hyperbola in first and fourth quadrants.
`therefore" "sec theta=2, tan theta=sqrt3`
The points of intersection are `A(6,2sqrt3) and B(6,-2sqrt3)`, ltBrgt Therefore, the circle with AB as diameter is
`(x-6)^(2)+y^(2)=(2sqrt3)^(2)`
`"or "x^(2)+y^(2)-12x+24=0`
