Intersection Of A Circle And A Line

Gbogbo ọrọ náà

A straight line can slice through a circle at two points, just touch it at one, or miss it entirely. Which of these happens is decided by a single number from the quadratic you get when you combine their equations: the discriminant. This is coordinate geometry meeting the algebra of quadratics in a satisfying way.

In this lesson you will work with the equation of a circle \((x-a)^2+(y-b)^2=r^2\), substitute a line into it, and use the discriminant of the resulting quadratic to decide whether the line is a chord (two points), a tangent (one point) or misses the circle (none). One calculation settles the geometry.

Ebumnobi

  1. Know and use the equation of a circle with centre (a, b) and radius r.
  2. Solve problems involving the intersection of a circle and a straight line.

Deciding whether a path crosses, grazes or misses a circular region is a real question in navigation, design and physics. Algebraically it reduces to substituting and reading a discriminant, which neatly ties together the circle equation, simultaneous equations and the theory of quadratic roots. It is a perfect capstone to the coordinate-geometry section.

  1. The equation of a circle with centre (a, b) and radius r is: A. (x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = r B. (x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = r^2 C. x^2 + y^2 = r D. (x + a)^2 + (y + b)^2 = r^2 Answer: B
  2. When a line is substituted into a circle, what does a discriminant of zero mean? A. The line is a chord B. The line is a tangent C. The line misses the circle D. The circle has no centre Answer: B
  3. For y = x + 1 and x^2 + y^2 = 25, the quadratic in x is x^2 + x - 12 = 0. Its discriminant is: A. -49 B. 1 C. 47 D. 49 Answer: D
  4. If the discriminant of the combined quadratic is negative, the line: A. Cuts the circle at two points B. Touches the circle C. Misses the circle D. Passes through the centre Answer: C
