A Circle
Question

In the diagram as shown, a circle is drawn with centre C(1, 1) and radius 1 and a line L. The line L is tangential to the circle at Q. Further  L meet the y - axis at R and the x - axis at P in such a way that the angle OPQ equals θ where 0<θ<π2.

Linked Question 1

If the area bounded by the circle, the x - axis and PQ is A(θ), then A(π4) equals

2+1+π8

21+π8

21+3π8

2+13π8

Solution

A(θ) = Area of quadrilateral – area of sector

=cotθ2-π-θ2

 if θ=π4,   Aπ4=cotπ8-3π8=2+1-3π8.

Linked Question 2

Equation of the line PR is

xtanθ+y=1+cotθ2

x sin θ + y cos θ = cos θ + sin θ – 1

x cos θ + y sin θ = sin θ + cos θ + 1

x sin θ + y cos θ = cos θ + sin θ + 1

mCQ=y-1x-1=cotθ

mPR = – tan θ

equation of PR is

y-(1+cosθ)=-tanθ(x-(1+sinθ))

y+xtanθ=(1+cosθ)+tanθ(1+sinθ)=cosθ(1+cosθ)+sinθ(1+sinθ)cosθ

y+xtanθ=1+cosθ+sinθcosθ

x sin θ + y cos θ = (cos θ + sin θ + 1)

The coordinates of Q are

(1 + sin θ, 1 + cos θ)

(1 + sin θ, cos θ)

(sin θ, cos θ)

For the circle with C, using parametric

x – 1 = sin θ
y – 1 = cos θ

  x=1+sinθy=1+cosθ  (1+sinθ,1+cosθ).
