The chord of contact of the tangents drawn from a point on the circle $x^2 + y^2 = a^2$ to the circle $x^2 + y^2 = b^2$ touches the circle $x^2 + y^2 = c^2$. Then $a, b, c$ are in:

  • A
    $A.P.$
  • B
    $G.P.$
  • C
    $H.P.$

Let the shortest distance from $(a, 0)$,$a > 0$,to the parabola $y^2 = 4x$ be $4$. Then the equation of the circle passing through the point $(a, 0)$ and the focus of the parabola,and having its centre on the axis of the parabola is:

The set of all values of $a^2$ for which the line $x + y = 0$ bisects two distinct chords drawn from a point $P\left(\frac{1+a}{2}, \frac{1-a}{2}\right)$ on the circle $2x^2 + 2y^2 - (1+a)x - (1-a)y = 0$ is equal to:

The line $2x - y + 1 = 0$ is tangent to the circle at the point $(2, 5)$ and the centre of the circle lies on $x - 2y = 4$. The radius of the circle is

Three concentric circles,of which the biggest is $x^2 + y^2 = 1$,have their radii in $A.P.$ If the line $y = x + 1$ cuts all the circles in real and distinct points,the interval in which the common difference $d$ of the $A.P.$ will lie is:

The power of the point $B(-1, 1)$ with respect to the circle $S \equiv x^2+y^2-2x-4y+3=0$ is $p$. If the length of the tangent drawn from $B$ to the circle $S=0$ is $t$,then the point $(2, 3)$ with respect to the circle $S^{\prime}=0$ having centre at $(p, t^2)$ and passing through the origin:
