Q26 / 54 · JEE Advanced 2022 (Paper 1) · Mathematics
Let be the triangle with and . If a circle of radius touches the sides and also touches internally the circumcircle of the triangle , then the value of is ______. (round-off the value to two decimal place)
Correct answer: 0.84
Solution
Let be the origin on axis, on axis,
So on plotting the diagram we get,
Now equation of circumcircle is given by
Required equation of circle touches and and have radius so its equation is given by,
Now given circle in equation touches circumcircle internally, so by property distance between the centre will be equal to modulus of difference of radii,
So,
or
So, (on rounding off)
Hence, the correct answer is 0.84.
