Important Questions on Common Chord of Two Circles

HARD
IMPORTANT

The circle x2+y2=4 cuts the circle x2+y2+2x+3y-5=0 in A & B. Then the centre of the circle on AB as a diameter is

HARD
IMPORTANT

The circles x2+y2+2ax-c2=0 and x2+y2+2bx-c2=0 intersect at A and B. A line through A meets one circle at P and aa parallel line through B meets the other circle at Q. Show that the locus of the mid point of PQ is a circle.

MEDIUM
IMPORTANT

If the circle x2+y2+4x+22y+c=0 bisects the circumference of the circle x2+y2-2x+8y-d=0, then c+d is equal to:

MEDIUM
IMPORTANT

Prove that the length of the common chord of the two circles x2+y2=a2 and x-c2+y2=b2 is 1ca+b+ca-b+ca+b-c-a+b+c, where a,b,c>0.

HARD
IMPORTANT

Show that the common chord of the circles x2+y2-6x-4y+9=0 and x2+y2-8x-6y+23=0 is the diameter of the second circle and also find its length.
