If a chord of a the circle x^(2)+y^(2) =...

If a chord of a the circle `x^(2)+y^(2) = 32` makes equal intercepts of length of l on the co-ordinate axes, then

A

`l lt 8`

B

`l lt 16`

C

`l gt 8`

D

`l gt 16`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Centre `-= (0,0)`
We must have `|(l)/(sqrt(2))| lt sqrt(32)`
`rArr |l| lt 8`
