If (-3, 2) lies on the circle x2 + y2 + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0, which is concentric with the circle x2 + y2 + 6x + By - 5 = 0, then c is equal to

The eccentricity of the ellipse, which meets the straight line on the axis of x and the staraight line on the axis of y and whose axes lie along the axes of coordinate, is
None of the above
If and x2 - y2 = c2 cut at right angles, then
a2 + b2 = 2c2
b2 - a2 = 2c2
a2 - b2 = 2c2
a2b2 = 2c2
The equation of the conic with focus at (1, - 1) directrix along x - y + 1 = 0 and with eccentricity , is
x2 - y2 = 1
xy = 1
2xy - 4x + 4y + 1 = 0
2xy + 4x - 4y - 1 = 0

The centres of the given circles x2 + y2 = 4 and x2 + y2 - 6x - 8y = 24 are C1(0, 0) and C2(3, 4) respectively. Their radii are r1 = 2 and r2 = 7 respectively.
We have, C1C2 = 5 < sum of radii
But C1C2 = difference of radii
Thus, the given circles touch each other internally.
Hence, the number of common tangent is only one.
The locus of the mid-points of the focal chord of the parabola y2 = 4ax is
y2 = a(x - a)
y2 = 2a(x - a)
y2 = 4a(x - a)
