Fin the equation of the circle circumscribing the triangle formed by the straight lines:x+y=6,2x+y=4 and x+2y=5.

answered-by-expert Expert Answer
Let the triangle be ABC.
Equation of AB: x+y=6         ... (i)
Equation of BC: 2x+y=4       ... (ii)
Equation of CA: x+2y=5       ... (iii)
 
Solve equations (i) and (ii) to get the vertices of B.
Solve equations (ii) and (iii) to get the vertices of C.
Solve equations (i) and (iii) to get the vertices of A.
 
Now, we need to find the equation of the circle passing through A, B and C.
 
Let the equation of the circle be x^2 + y^2 + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0           ... (A)
 
Substitute the value of x and y for each of the three coordinates in the above equation.
You will get three equations. Solve them to find f, g, c.
 
You will then get the required equation of the circle by putting these values in equation (A).

SIR PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS QUESTIONS : 1. Find the equation of the tangent to the circle x^2+y^2=16 drawn from the point (1,4). 2. How many triangles can be formed by joining any 3 of the 9 points when i) no 3 of them  are collinear? ii) 5 of them are collinear? 3. AB is a line of fixed length, 6 units, joining the points A(t,0) and B which lies on thepositive y axis. P is a point on AB distant 2 units from A. Express the coordinates of B and P in terms of t. Find the locus of P as t varies. 4. In a triangle ABC, (b^2 - c^2) / (b^2 + c^2) = sin(B - C) / sin(B + C), prove that it is either a right-angled or isoceles triangle.

A stadium is in circular shape. Within the stadium some areas have been allotted for a hockey court and a javelin range, as given in the figure. Assume the shape of the hockey court and the javelin range to be square and triangle, resp. The curators would like to accommodate a few more sports in the stadium. Help them by measuring the unallocated region within the stadium.(the radius of the stadium is 200 mts.)
