Q116 / 180 · KCET 2018 · Mathematics
The maximum area of a rectangle inscribed in the circle \( (x+1)^{2}+(y-3)^{2}=64 \) is
- A\( 64 \mathrm{sq} . \) units
- B\( 72 \mathrm{sq} . \) units
- Correct answerC\( 128 \) sq. units
- D\( 8 \) sq. units
Solution
$(x+1)^{2}+(y-3)^{2}=64$
$x^{2}+x^{2}=(16)^{2}$
$2 x^{2}=16.16$
$x^{2}=8.16$
$x=8 \sqrt{2}$
Given rectangle is a square
Area of square is $=8 \sqrt{2} \star 8 \sqrt{2}$
$=128 s q$. units
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
