The circle passing through the distinct points $(1, t)$,$(t, 1)$,and $(t, t)$ for all values of $t$ passes through the point:

Consider the circle $C : x^2 + y^2 - 6x - 8y - 11 = 0$. Let a variable chord $AB$ of the circle $C$ subtend a right angle at the origin. If the locus of the foot of the perpendicular drawn from the origin on the chord $AB$ is the circle $x^2 + y^2 - \alpha x - \beta y - \gamma = 0$, then $\alpha + \beta + 2\gamma$ is equal to . . . . . .

Let $P(\alpha, \beta)$ be a variable point which moves in the $x-y$ plane such that $\frac{PA}{PB} = 2$,where $A(1, 0)$ and $B(0, -1)$. If $M$ and $m$ denote respectively the maximum and minimum value of $\alpha + \beta$,then the value of $[\frac{M}{m}]$ is- (where $[.]$ denotes the greatest integer function)

If a point $P$ moves such that the distance from $(0, 2)$ to $P$ is $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$ times the distance of $P$ from $(-1, 0)$,then the locus of the point $P$ is:
