Medium INTEGER +4 / -1 PYQ · JEE Mains 2022

If one of the diameters of the circle ${x^2} + {y^2} - 2\sqrt 2 x - 6\sqrt 2 y + 14 = 0$ is a chord of the circle ${(x - 2\sqrt 2 )^2} + {(y - 2\sqrt 2 )^2} = {r^2}$, then the value of r2 is equal to ____________.

Answer (integer) 10

Solution

For $x^{2}+y^{2}-2 \sqrt{2} x-6 \sqrt{2} y+14=0$ <br/><br/> $\text { Radius }=\sqrt{(\sqrt{2})^{2}+(3 \sqrt{2})^{2}-14}=\sqrt{6}$ <br/><br/> $\Rightarrow$ Diameter $=2 \sqrt{6}$ <br/><br/> If this diameter is chord to <br/><br/> $$ \begin{aligned} &(x-2 \sqrt{2})^{2}+(y-2 \sqrt{2})^{2}=r^{2} \text { then } \\\\ &\Rightarrow r^{2}=6+\left(\sqrt{(\sqrt{2})^{2}+(\sqrt{2})^{2}}\right)^{2} \\\\ &\Rightarrow r^{2}=6+4=10 \\\\ &\Rightarrow r^{2}=10 \end{aligned} $$
