The centre of the circle x=2+3 cos theta...

The centre of the circle `x=2+3 cos theta, y=3 sin theta-1`, is

A

(3, 3)

B

(2, -1)

C

(-2, 1)

D

(-1, 2)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

We have,
`x=2+3 cos theta` and `y=3 sin theta -1 rArr (x-2)^(2)+(y+1)^(2)=3^(2)`
Clearly, it is the equation of a circle having its centre at (2, -1).
