Statement 1: The circumcircle of a triangle formed by the lines `x=0,x+y+1=0` and `x-y+1=0` also passes through the point (1, 0). Statement 2: The circumcircle of a triangle formed by three tangents of a parabola passes through its focus.

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will analyze both statements one by one. ### Step 1: Analyze Statement 1 We need to determine if the circumcircle of the triangle formed by the lines \( x = 0 \), \( x + y + 1 = 0 \), and \( x - y + 1 = 0 \) passes through the point \( (1, 0) \). 1. **Find the points of intersection of the lines:** - The line \( x = 0 \) intersects \( x + y + 1 = 0 \): \[ x = 0 \implies 0 + y + 1 = 0 \implies y = -1 \implies A(0, -1) \] - The line \( x = 0 \) intersects \( x - y + 1 = 0 \): \[ x = 0 \implies 0 - y + 1 = 0 \implies y = 1 \implies B(0, 1) \] - The lines \( x + y + 1 = 0 \) and \( x - y + 1 = 0 \) intersect: \[ \begin{align*} x + y + 1 &= 0 \quad (1) \\ x - y + 1 &= 0 \quad (2) \end{align*} \] Adding (1) and (2): \[ 2x + 2 = 0 \implies x = -1 \] Substituting \( x = -1 \) into (1): \[ -1 + y + 1 = 0 \implies y = 0 \implies C(-1, 0) \] 2. **Points of the triangle:** The vertices of the triangle are \( A(0, -1) \), \( B(0, 1) \), and \( C(-1, 0) \). ### Step 2: Find the circumcircle The circumcircle of a triangle can be represented by the general equation: \[ x^2 + y^2 + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0 \] We will substitute the coordinates of points A, B, and C to find \( g, f, c \). 1. **Substituting point A(0, -1):** \[ 0^2 + (-1)^2 + 2g(0) + 2f(-1) + c = 0 \implies 1 - 2f + c = 0 \quad (1) \] 2. **Substituting point B(0, 1):** \[ 0^2 + 1^2 + 2g(0) + 2f(1) + c = 0 \implies 1 + 2f + c = 0 \quad (2) \] 3. **Substituting point C(-1, 0):** \[ (-1)^2 + 0^2 + 2g(-1) + 2f(0) + c = 0 \implies 1 - 2g + c = 0 \quad (3) \] ### Step 3: Solve the equations From equations (1), (2), and (3): 1. From (1): \( c = 2f - 1 \) 2. From (2): \( c = -2f - 1 \) Setting these equal: \[ 2f - 1 = -2f - 1 \implies 4f = 0 \implies f = 0 \] Substituting \( f = 0 \) into \( c = 2f - 1 \): \[ c = -1 \] 3. Substituting \( f = 0 \) into (3): \[ 1 - 2g - 1 = 0 \implies g = 0 \] ### Step 4: Equation of the circumcircle The circumcircle is: \[ x^2 + y^2 - 1 = 0 \implies x^2 + y^2 = 1 \] Now we check if the point \( (1, 0) \) lies on this circle: \[ 1^2 + 0^2 = 1 \implies 1 = 1 \] Thus, the point \( (1, 0) \) lies on the circumcircle. ### Conclusion for Statement 1 Statement 1 is **True**. ### Step 5: Analyze Statement 2 The statement claims that the circumcircle of a triangle formed by three tangents of a parabola passes through its focus. This is a known property of conics, specifically parabolas, and is **True**. ### Final Answer Both statements are **True**.
