Find the equation of the straight line which passes through
the centre of the circle x2 + y2 + 2x + 2y - 23 = 0 and is perpendicular to the straight line x-y+8=0.
Answers
answer is equation
x+y+2=0
we have to find the equation of the straight line which passes through the centre of the circle x² + y² + 2x + 2y - 23 = 0 and is perpendicular to the straight line x - y + 8 = 0.
solution : equation of circle is x² + y² + 2x + 2y - 23 = 0.
so centre of circle is (-1, -1)
slope of line (x - y + 8 = 0) = 1
as unknown straight is perpendicular to the line x - y + 8 = 0
so slope of unknown line = -1/(slope of x - y + 8 = 0) = -1
now the equation straight line is given by (y - y₁) = m(x - x₁)
here (x₁ , y₁) = (-1, -1) and m = -1
⇒{y - (-1)} = (-1){x - (-1)}
⇒y + 1 = -(x + 1)
⇒y + 1 + x + 1 = 0
⇒x + y + 2 = 0
Therefore the equation of straight line is x + y + 2 = 0.
