Q67.A circle cuts a chord of length 4 a on the x -axis and passes through a point on the y -axis, distant 2 b from the origin. Then the locus of the centre of this circle, is: (1) a hyperbola (2) an ellipse (3) a straight line (4) a parabola

What This Question Tests

This question requires setting up the equation of a circle based on given chord length and a passing point, using properties of chords, and then deriving the locus of its center.

Concepts Tested

Equation of a circleProperties of chords in a circleLocus of a pointParabola identification

Formulas Used

(x-h)² + (y-k)² = r²

r² = d² + (L/2)²
