For any two nonzero real numbers a and b if this line x a + y b = 1 is a tangent to the circle x 2 + y 2 = 1…
- lies inside the circle
- lies inside the circle
- lies on the circle
- lies on the circle
Solution
Given,
Equation of circle as ,
Now assuming a point on circle we have equation of tangent at this point given by ,
Now given is tangent to the given circle so on comparing with equation we get,
So point lie on the circle.
