The -equation (x-x1)(x-x2)+(y-y1)(y-y2)=...

`The -equation (x-x_1)(x-x_2)+(y-y_1)(y-y_2)=0` Represents a circle whose centre is

A

`((x_1+x_2)/(3),(y_1+y_2)/(3))`

B

`((y_1+x_2)/(2),(x_1+y_2)/(2))`

C

`((x_1+x_2)/(2),(y_1+y_2)/(2))`

D

`((y_1+x_2)/(4),(x_1+y_2)/(4))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Given, `(x-x_1)(x-x_2)+(y-y_1)(y-y_2)=0`,whose extremities of diameter are `(x_1,y_1)` and `(x_2,y_2)`. Hence, coordinates of centre of cricle is `((x_1+x_2)/(2),(y_1+y_2)/(2)).`
