If the point (lamda,-lamda) lies inside ...

If the point `(lamda,-lamda)` lies inside the circle `x^(2)+y^(2)-4x+2y-8=0`, then find range of `lamda`.

A

(-1, 4)

B

`(-oo, -1)`

C

`(4, oo)`

D

[-1, 4]

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Since the point (a, -a) lies inside the circle `x^(2)+y^(2)-4x+2y-8=0`.
`:. a^(2)+a^(2)-4a-2a-8 lt 0`
`rArr 2a^(2)-6a-8 lt 0`
`rArr a^(2)-3a-4 lt0`
`rArr (a-4) (a+1) lt0 rArr -1 lt a lt 4 rArr a in (-1, 4)`
