The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the statements provided and derive the necessary conclusions step by step. ### Step 1: Understanding the Family of Circles The family of circles mentioned in Statement 1 touches the x-axis at the origin and has centers on the y-axis. The general equation of such a circle can be written as: \[ x^2 + (y - k)^2 = k^2 \] where \( k \) is the y-coordinate of the center of the circle. ### Step 2: Simplifying the Circle Equation Expanding the equation gives: \[ x^2 + (y^2 - 2ky + k^2) = k^2 \] This simplifies to: \[ x^2 + y^2 - 2ky = 0 \] ### Step 3: Finding the Differential Equation To find the orthogonal trajectory, we need to differentiate the equation with respect to \( x \): \[ \frac{d}{dx}(x^2 + y^2 - 2ky) = 0 \] This leads to: \[ 2x + 2y \frac{dy}{dx} - 2k \frac{dy}{dx} = 0 \] Rearranging gives: \[ (2y - 2k) \frac{dy}{dx} = -2x \] Thus, \[ \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{-2x}{2y - 2k} = \frac{-x}{y - k} \] ### Step 4: Finding the Orthogonal Trajectory For orthogonal trajectories, we replace \(\frac{dy}{dx}\) with \(-\frac{dx}{dy}\): \[ -\frac{dx}{dy} = \frac{-x}{y - k} \implies \frac{dx}{dy} = \frac{x}{y - k} \] ### Step 5: Solving the Differential Equation This equation can be solved using separation of variables: \[ \frac{dx}{x} = \frac{dy}{y - k} \] Integrating both sides: \[ \ln |x| = \ln |y - k| + C \] Exponentiating gives: \[ |x| = C|y - k| \] Thus, we can express this as: \[ x = C(y - k) \] ### Step 6: Analyzing Self-Orthogonality To check if the orthogonal trajectories are self-orthogonal, we need to see if the resulting curves intersect orthogonally. This requires examining the slopes of the curves at their intersection points. ### Conclusion on Statements 1. **Statement 1**: The orthogonal trajectory of the family of circles is self-orthogonal. This is **false** because the derived orthogonal trajectories do not intersect the original family of circles orthogonally. 2. **Statement 2**: The method for finding orthogonal trajectories by replacing \(\frac{dy}{dx}\) with \(-\frac{dx}{dy}\) is indeed correct. This is **true**. ### Final Answer Thus, Statement 1 is false, and Statement 2 is true.
