|r1 – r2| < c1c2 < r1 + r2

-> | 2 − 4 λ 2 − 9 | < | 2 λ | < 2 + 4 λ 2 − 9

| 2 λ | − 2 < 4 λ 2 − 9    

4 λ 2 + 4 − 8 | λ | < 4 λ 2 − 9

  λ > 1 3 8 ,   λ < − 1 3 8           

4 λ 2 − 9 > 0

λ > 3 2 ,   λ < − 3 2

λ ∈ ( − ∞ ,   − 1 3 8 ) ∪ ( 1 3 8 ,   ∞ )           

Now,

| 2 − 4 λ 2 − 9 | < | 2 λ |            

4 + 4 λ 2 − 9 − 4 4 λ 2 − 9 < 4 λ 2  

4 4 λ 2 − 9 > − 5 ⇒ λ ∈ R  

λ ∈ ( − ∞ ,   − 1 3 8 ) ∪ ( 1 3 8 ,   ∞ )

(y – 2) = m (x – 8)

⇒   x-intercept

⇒     ( − 2 m + 8 )

⇒   y-intercept

⇒   (–8m + 2)

⇒   OA + OB = − 2 m 2  + 8 – 8m + 2

f ' ( m ) = 2 m 2 − 8 = 0  

-> m 2 = 1 4

-> m = − 1 2

-> f ( − 1 2 ) = 1 8

->Minimum = 18

According to question,

1 2 ( 1 a + 1 b ) = 1 4

1 a + 1 b = 1 2 . . . . . . . . ( i )

Equation of required line is x a + y b = 1

Obviously B (2, 2) satisfying condition (i)

  h = c o s θ + 3 2          

k = s i n θ + 2 2            

-> c o s θ = 2 h − 3 & s i n θ = 2 k − 2

-> ( h − 3 / 2 ) 2 + ( k − 1 ) 2 = 1 4

∴ circle of radius r = 1 2

Let y = mx + c is the common tangent

              s o     c = 1 m = ± 3 2 1 + m 2 ⇒ m 2 = 1 3  

              so equation of common tangents will be

              y = ± 1 3 x ± 3

? l 1     a n d     l 2 are perpendicular, so

3 × 1 + ( − 2 ) ( α 2 ) + 0 × 2 = 0

⇒a = 3

Now angle between  l 2     a n d     l 3 ,

c o s θ = 1 ( − 3 ) + α 2 ( − 2 ) + 2 ( 4 ) 1 + α 2 4 + 4 . 9 + 4 + 1 6

⇒ c o s θ = 2 2 9 2 ⇒ θ = c o s − 1 ( 4 2 9 ) = s e c − 1 ( 2 9 4 )

y + 2 x = 1 1 + 7 7  ………(i)

              2 y + x = 2 1 1 + 6 7        ………(ii)

              ⇒ x + y = 1 1 + 1 3 3 7    ………(iii)

              Centre of the circle given by solving (i) & (ii)
