The correct Answer is:
To find the coordinates of point S in the parallelogram PQSR, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the given information - The point P is given as \( P(3, 4) \). - The equation of the circle is \( x^2 + y^2 = 4 \). - The line \( L = 0 \) indicates that P lies on the x-axis. ### Step 2: Write the equation of the chord QR Using the formula for the chord of a circle from an external point, we have: \[ xx_1 + yy_1 = r^2 \] where \( (x_1, y_1) \) is the point P, and \( r^2 \) is the radius squared of the circle. Here, \( r^2 = 4 \) and \( (x_1, y_1) = (3, 4) \). Substituting these values in: \[ 3x + 4y = 4 \] This is our equation of the chord QR. ### Step 3: Rearrange the equation of the chord Rearranging \( 3x + 4y - 4 = 0 \) gives us the coefficients: - \( a = 3 \) - \( b = 4 \) - \( c = -4 \) ### Step 4: Use the formula for the mirror image The coordinates of the mirror image \( S \) of point \( P(3, 4) \) with respect to the line \( ax + by + c = 0 \) can be found using the formula: \[ \frac{x - x_1}{a} = \frac{y - y_1}{b} = -\frac{2(ax_1 + by_1 + c)}{a^2 + b^2} \] Substituting the values: - \( x_1 = 3 \) - \( y_1 = 4 \) - \( a = 3 \) - \( b = 4 \) - \( c = -4 \) Calculating \( ax_1 + by_1 + c \): \[ 3(3) + 4(4) - 4 = 9 + 16 - 4 = 21 \] Now calculate \( a^2 + b^2 \): \[ 3^2 + 4^2 = 9 + 16 = 25 \] Now substituting into the formula: \[ \frac{x - 3}{3} = \frac{y - 4}{4} = -\frac{2 \times 21}{25} = -\frac{42}{25} \] ### Step 5: Solve for x and y From \( \frac{x - 3}{3} = -\frac{42}{25} \): \[ x - 3 = -\frac{126}{25} \] \[ x = 3 - \frac{126}{25} = \frac{75}{25} - \frac{126}{25} = -\frac{51}{25} \] From \( \frac{y - 4}{4} = -\frac{42}{25} \): \[ y - 4 = -\frac{168}{25} \] \[ y = 4 - \frac{168}{25} = \frac{100}{25} - \frac{168}{25} = -\frac{68}{25} \] ### Step 6: Write the coordinates of S Thus, the coordinates of point S are: \[ S\left(-\frac{51}{25}, -\frac{68}{25}\right) \]

To find the coordinates of point S in the parallelogram PQSR, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the given information - The point P is given as \( P(3, 4) \). - The equation of the circle is \( x^2 + y^2 = 4 \). - The line \( L = 0 \) indicates that P lies on the x-axis. ### Step 2: Write the equation of the chord QR ...
