JEE Main 2024 Mathematics question
Let C be a circle with radius units and centre at the origin. Let the line x + y = 2 intersects the circle C at the points P and Q. Let MN be a chord of C of length 2 unit and slope −1. Then, a distance (in units) between the chord PQ and the chord MN is
Answer: (B)
Solution
A chord of length 2 in a circle of radius √10 is at distance 3 from the centre, i.e. x +
