The correct Answer is:
To find the equation of the circle that cuts orthogonally the given circles, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write down the equations of the given circles The equations of the circles are: 1. \( C_1: x^2 + y^2 - 2x - 3y - 7 = 0 \) 2. \( C_2: x^2 + y^2 + 5x - 5y + 9 = 0 \) 3. \( C_3: x^2 + y^2 + 7x - 9y + 29 = 0 \) ### Step 2: Find the radial axis of circles \( C_1 \) and \( C_2 \) To find the radial axis, we subtract the equations of the circles: \[ C_1 - C_2 = 0 \] This gives us: \[ (x^2 + y^2 - 2x - 3y - 7) - (x^2 + y^2 + 5x - 5y + 9) = 0 \] Simplifying this, we get: \[ -2x - 3y - 7 - 5x + 5y + 9 = 0 \] Combining like terms: \[ -7x + 2y + 2 = 0 \quad \text{(Equation 4)} \] Rearranging gives: \[ 7x - 2y - 2 = 0 \] ### Step 3: Find the radial axis of circles \( C_2 \) and \( C_3 \) Now we find the radial axis between \( C_2 \) and \( C_3 \): \[ C_2 - C_3 = 0 \] This gives us: \[ (x^2 + y^2 + 5x - 5y + 9) - (x^2 + y^2 + 7x - 9y + 29) = 0 \] Simplifying this, we get: \[ 5x - 5y + 9 - 7x + 9y - 29 = 0 \] Combining like terms: \[ -2x + 4y - 20 = 0 \quad \text{(Equation 5)} \] Rearranging gives: \[ 2x - 4y + 20 = 0 \] ### Step 4: Solve the equations (4) and (5) simultaneously We have the two equations: 1. \( 7x - 2y - 2 = 0 \) 2. \( 2x - 4y + 20 = 0 \) From the second equation, we can express \( y \) in terms of \( x \): \[ 2x + 20 = 4y \implies y = \frac{1}{2}x + 5 \] Substituting this into the first equation: \[ 7x - 2\left(\frac{1}{2}x + 5\right) - 2 = 0 \] Simplifying: \[ 7x - x - 10 - 2 = 0 \implies 6x - 12 = 0 \implies x = 2 \] Now substituting \( x = 2 \) back to find \( y \): \[ y = \frac{1}{2}(2) + 5 = 1 + 5 = 6 \] Thus, the center of the circle is \( (2, 6) \). ### Step 5: Find the radius of the circle Using the formula for the radius: \[ r = \sqrt{g^2 + f^2 - c} \] From the equation of the circle, we can find \( g, f, c \): For the center \( (h, k) = (2, 6) \), we need to find \( g, f, c \) from one of the original circles. We can use \( C_1 \): \[ g = -2, f = -3, c = -7 \] Calculating: \[ r = \sqrt{(-2)^2 + (-3)^2 - (-7)} = \sqrt{4 + 9 + 7} = \sqrt{20} = 2\sqrt{5} \] ### Step 6: Write the equation of the circle The equation of the circle is: \[ (x - 2)^2 + (y - 6)^2 = (2\sqrt{5})^2 \] Expanding this gives: \[ (x - 2)^2 + (y - 6)^2 = 20 \] Expanding further: \[ x^2 - 4x + 4 + y^2 - 12y + 36 = 20 \] Combining terms: \[ x^2 + y^2 - 4x - 12y + 20 = 0 \] ### Final Answer The equation of the circle is: \[ x^2 + y^2 - 4x - 12y + 20 = 0 \]
