The correct Answer is:
To find the equation of the image circle of the circle \( x^2 + y^2 - 2x = 0 \) in the line \( x + y - 2 = 0 \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the center and radius of the original circle The equation of the circle can be rewritten as: \[ x^2 - 2x + y^2 = 0 \] This can be compared to the standard form of a circle: \[ (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2 \] To find the center, we complete the square for the \( x \) terms: \[ (x^2 - 2x + 1) + y^2 = 1 \] This gives us: \[ (x - 1)^2 + y^2 = 1 \] From this, we can see that the center of the circle is \( (1, 0) \) and the radius \( r = 1 \). ### Step 2: Find the equation of the line The equation of the line is given as: \[ x + y - 2 = 0 \] This can be rewritten in the form \( ax + by + c = 0 \) where \( a = 1, b = 1, c = -2 \). ### Step 3: Find the image of the center across the line To find the image of the center \( (1, 0) \) across the line \( x + y - 2 = 0 \), we use the formula for the reflection of a point \( (x_1, y_1) \) across the line \( ax + by + c = 0 \): \[ h = x_1 - \frac{2a(ax_1 + by_1 + c)}{a^2 + b^2} \] \[ k = y_1 - \frac{2b(ax_1 + by_1 + c)}{a^2 + b^2} \] Substituting \( (x_1, y_1) = (1, 0) \) and \( (a, b, c) = (1, 1, -2) \): \[ h = 1 - \frac{2 \cdot 1 \cdot (1 \cdot 1 + 1 \cdot 0 - 2)}{1^2 + 1^2} \] \[ = 1 - \frac{2 \cdot 1 \cdot (1 - 2)}{2} = 1 - \frac{2 \cdot (-1)}{2} = 1 + 1 = 2 \] \[ k = 0 - \frac{2 \cdot 1 \cdot (1 \cdot 1 + 1 \cdot 0 - 2)}{1^2 + 1^2} \] \[ = 0 - \frac{2 \cdot 1 \cdot (1 - 2)}{2} = 0 + 1 = 1 \] Thus, the image of the center is \( (2, 1) \). ### Step 4: Write the equation of the image circle The image circle has the same radius as the original circle, which is \( r = 1 \). Therefore, the equation of the image circle with center \( (2, 1) \) and radius \( 1 \) is: \[ (x - 2)^2 + (y - 1)^2 = 1 \] Expanding this, we get: \[ (x^2 - 4x + 4) + (y^2 - 2y + 1) = 1 \] \[ x^2 + y^2 - 4x - 2y + 4 = 1 \] \[ x^2 + y^2 - 4x - 2y + 3 = 0 \] ### Final Answer The equation of the image circle is: \[ x^2 + y^2 - 4x - 2y + 3 = 0 \]
