Q.8 The circles, which cut the family of circles passing through the fixed points \(A \equiv(2,1)\) and \(\mathrm{B} \equiv(4,3)\) orthogonally, pass through two fixed points \(\left(\mathrm{x}_{1}, \mathrm{y}_{1}\right)\) and \(\left(\mathrm{x}_{2}, \mathrm{y}_{2}\right)\), which may be real or imaginary. Find the value of \(\left(x_{1}^{3}+x_{2}^{3}+y_{1}^{3}+y_{2}^{3}\right)\).


[Ans. 40]


[Sol. The equation of circle taking \(\mathrm{AB}\) as diameter \(\quad\) [12th, 24-08-2008]


\[

(x-2)(x-4)+(y-1)(y-3)=0

\]


The equation of the line joining the points \(\mathrm{A}\) and \(\mathrm{B}\) is


\[

\mathrm{x}-\mathrm{y}-1=0 \quad \text {....(2) }

\]


The equation of members of family of circle passing through \(A\) and \(\mathrm{B}\) is given by


\[

\begin{array}{lll} 

& \mathrm{S} \equiv(\mathrm{x}-2)(\mathrm{x}-4)+(\mathrm{y}-1)(\mathrm{y}-3)+\lambda(\mathrm{x}-\mathrm{y}-1)=0 & \text { where } \lambda \text { is parameter, } \lambda \in \mathrm{R} \\

\therefore \quad \mathrm{S} \equiv \mathrm{x}^{2}+\mathrm{y}^{2}+(\lambda-6) \mathrm{x}+(-\lambda-4) \mathrm{y}+(11-\lambda)=0 & \ldots . .(1)

\end{array}

\]


Let the circles which cuts the members of circle be


\[

S_{1}=x^{2}+y^{2}+2 g x+2 f y+c=0

\]


Applying condition of orthogonality for (1) and (2), we get


\[

x^{2}+y^{2}+2\left(\frac{-c-15}{10}\right) x+2\left(\frac{-c-5}{10}\right) y+c=0

\]


or \(\quad x^{2}+y^{2}-3 x-y-\frac{c}{5}(x+y-5)=0\) \(2 \mathrm{~g}\left(\frac{\lambda-6}{2}\right)+2 \mathrm{f}\left(\frac{-\lambda-4}{2}\right)=\mathrm{c}+11-\lambda\)


i.e. \(\quad(-6 g-4 f-c-11)+\lambda(g-f+1)=0\)


This will also hold for all \(\lambda \in \mathrm{R}\)


\(\therefore \quad\) we have \(\quad-6 \mathrm{~g}-4 \mathrm{f}-\mathrm{c}-11=0\) and \(\mathrm{g}-\mathrm{f}+1=0\)


solving these equations for \(g\) and \(f\) in terms of \(c\), we get \(g=\frac{-c-15}{10}\) and \(f=\frac{-c-5}{10}\)


substituting the values of \(g\) and \(f\) in terms of \(c\) in (2), we get the circles cutting the circles of system (1) orthogonally as


which represents equation of family of circles passing through two fixed points whose coordinates obtained by solving equations


i.e. solving \(x^{2}+y^{2}-3 x-y=0\) and \(x+y-5=0\)


\(\Rightarrow \quad \mathrm{x}^{2}-6 \mathrm{x}-10=0(\mathrm{D}<0)\)


Illy \(\quad y^{2}-4 y+5=0\)


\(y_{1}+y_{2}=4 ; \quad y_{1} y_{2}=5\)


\(\left(x_{1}^{3}+x_{2}^{3}+y_{1}^{3}+y_{2}^{3}\right)=\left(x_{1}+x_{2}\right)^{3}-3 x_{1} x_{2}\left(x_{1}+x_{2}\right)+\left(y_{1}+y_{2}\right)^{3}-3 y_{1} y_{2}\left(y_{1}+y_{2}\right)\)
