The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the relationship between the lengths of tangents from the point (f, g) to two circles given by the equations \(x^2 + y^2 = 6\) and \(x^2 + y^2 + 3x + 3y = 0\). ### Step 1: Identify the equations of the circles The first circle is given by: \[ x^2 + y^2 = 6 \] This can be rewritten as: \[ x^2 + y^2 - 6 = 0 \] The second circle is given by: \[ x^2 + y^2 + 3x + 3y = 0 \] This can be rewritten as: \[ x^2 + y^2 + 3x + 3y = 0 \] ### Step 2: Calculate the length of the tangent from point (f, g) to the first circle The formula for the length of the tangent from a point \((f, g)\) to a circle defined by \(S_1 = 0\) is given by: \[ L_1 = \sqrt{S_1} = \sqrt{f^2 + g^2 - 6} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the length of the tangent from point (f, g) to the second circle For the second circle, we can express it in the form \(S_2 = 0\): \[ S_2 = f^2 + g^2 + 3f + 3g \] Thus, the length of the tangent from point \((f, g)\) to the second circle is: \[ L_2 = \sqrt{S_2} = \sqrt{f^2 + g^2 + 3f + 3g} \] ### Step 4: Set up the relationship between the lengths of tangents According to the problem, the length of the tangent from (f, g) to the first circle is twice the length of the tangent to the second circle: \[ L_1 = 2L_2 \] ### Step 5: Substitute the lengths of tangents into the equation Substituting the expressions for \(L_1\) and \(L_2\): \[ \sqrt{f^2 + g^2 - 6} = 2\sqrt{f^2 + g^2 + 3f + 3g} \] ### Step 6: Square both sides to eliminate the square roots Squaring both sides gives: \[ f^2 + g^2 - 6 = 4(f^2 + g^2 + 3f + 3g) \] ### Step 7: Expand and simplify the equation Expanding the right side: \[ f^2 + g^2 - 6 = 4f^2 + 4g^2 + 12f + 12g \] Rearranging gives: \[ f^2 + g^2 - 4f^2 - 4g^2 - 12f - 12g - 6 = 0 \] This simplifies to: \[ -3f^2 - 3g^2 - 12f - 12g - 6 = 0 \] ### Step 8: Factor out the common terms Dividing the entire equation by -3: \[ f^2 + g^2 + 4f + 4g + 2 = 0 \] ### Final Step: Write the final relation Thus, the relation that holds true is: \[ f^2 + g^2 + 4f + 4g + 2 = 0 \]
