The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, let's break it down: ### Step 1: Understand the Geometry We have two circles, \( C_1 \) and \( C_2 \). Circle \( C_1 \) touches the x-axis and the line \( y = x \tan \theta \) in the first quadrant. Circle \( C_2 \) touches the same line at the same point as \( C_1 \), and the ratio of their radii is \( 2:1 \). ### Step 2: Define the Radii and Centers Let the radius of circle \( C_1 \) be \( r_1 \) and the radius of circle \( C_2 \) be \( r_2 \). Given the ratio \( \frac{r_1}{r_2} = 2 \), we can express \( r_2 \) as: \[ r_2 = \frac{r_1}{2} \] ### Step 3: Determine the Touching Point Let the point where both circles touch the line \( y = x \tan \theta \) be \( P(d, d \tan \theta) \). The distance from the center of \( C_1 \) to the x-axis is \( r_1 \), and the center of \( C_1 \) can be denoted as \( O_1(d, r_1) \). ### Step 4: Use Right Triangle Properties In triangle \( O_1 P \): \[ \tan \left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right) = \frac{r_1}{d} \] Thus, \[ d = r_1 \cot \left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right) \] ### Step 5: Analyze Circle \( C_2 \) For circle \( C_2 \), its center \( O_2 \) can be denoted as \( (d, r_2) \). The distance from \( O_2 \) to the line \( y = x \tan \theta \) gives: \[ \tan \left(90^\circ - \frac{\theta}{2}\right) = \frac{r_2}{d} \] Thus, \[ \tan \left(45^\circ - \frac{\theta}{2}\right) = \frac{r_2}{d} \] ### Step 6: Substitute for \( d \) Substituting \( d \) from the previous step: \[ \tan \left(45^\circ - \frac{\theta}{2}\right) = \frac{r_2}{r_1 \cot \left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right)} \] ### Step 7: Simplify the Equation Using the identity \( \tan(A - B) = \frac{\tan A - \tan B}{1 + \tan A \tan B} \): \[ \tan \left(45^\circ - \frac{\theta}{2}\right) = \frac{1 - \tan \left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right)}{1 + \tan \left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right)} \] Substituting this into our equation gives: \[ \frac{1 - \tan \left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right)}{1 + \tan \left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right)} = \frac{r_2}{r_1 \cot \left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right)} \] ### Step 8: Substitute \( r_2 \) Substituting \( r_2 = \frac{r_1}{2} \): \[ \frac{1 - \tan \left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right)}{1 + \tan \left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right)} = \frac{\frac{r_1}{2}}{r_1 \cot \left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right)} \] This simplifies to: \[ \frac{1 - \tan \left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right)}{1 + \tan \left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right)} = \frac{1}{2 \cot \left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right)} \] ### Step 9: Solve for \( \tan \left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right) \) Cross-multiplying and simplifying leads to a quadratic equation in terms of \( \tan \left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right) \): \[ \tan^2 \left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right) + 3 \tan \left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right) - 2 = 0 \] ### Step 10: Use the Quadratic Formula Using the quadratic formula: \[ \tan \left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right) = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} \] where \( a = 1, b = 3, c = -2 \): \[ \tan \left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right) = \frac{-3 \pm \sqrt{9 + 8}}{2} = \frac{-3 \pm \sqrt{17}}{2} \] ### Step 11: Choose the Positive Root Since \( \tan \left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right) > 0 \): \[ \tan \left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right) = \frac{-3 + \sqrt{17}}{2} \] ### Step 12: Express in Required Form We need to express \( \frac{\tan \theta}{2} \) in the form \( \sqrt{a - b}/c \): \[ \frac{\tan \theta}{2} = \frac{\sqrt{17} - 3}{2} \] Thus, \( a = 17, b = 3, c = 2 \). ### Final Answer The values are \( a = 17, b = 3, c = 2 \) and \( \text{HCF}(b, c) = 1 \).
