Question
The locus of the centre of a circle which touch the circles x2+y26x6y+14=0 externally and also the Y - axis is given by
Options:
A .  x2−6y−7y+14=0
B .  x2−10x−6y+14=0
C .  y2−6x−10y+14=0
D .  y2−10x−6y+14=0
Answer: Option D
:
D
Let (x, y) be centre ofcircle which touch y - axis and given circle.
At any point, the radius of this circle will be equal to 'x' units. Since this circle is touching the given circle which has a radius of two units,
Distance between centres of the two circles= 2 + x
(x3)2+(y3)2=2+x
y210x6y+14=0
