Q1. The centre of the sphere , which passes through ( a , 0 , 0 ) , ( 0 , b , 0 ) ( 0 , 0 , c ) and ( 0 , 0 ,0 ) is ? where abc ≠ 0
Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:

General equation of the sphere is ---------------------1)

Since 1) passes through the point (0,0,0) using this in 1) we get d=0

Similarly 1) passes through ( a , 0 , 0 ) , ( 0 , b , 0 ) ( 0 , 0 , c ) using these values in 1)


But as abc0  So , a 0 ,b 0 ,c 0

So from above equations , we have a =  - 2g , b= - 2f , c = -2h

 centre is (-f ,-g , -h) = ( a/2 , b/2 , c/2 )

 


Q2. The equations of y axis are
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

Since on Y axis x and z coordinate are 0 . So , Equations of Y axis are X=0 and Z=0

Q3. The equation   represents
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

The equation  which represent generally YZ plane i.e. X=0 plane

Q4. A sphere through three non – collinear points A, B, and C is smallest when its centre is
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:
No Explaination.


Q5. There is one and only one sphere through
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

Yes , it is true because if we assume 2 sphere or more than that they wil coincide

Q6. Three planes x + y = 0 , y + z = 0 , and x + z = 0
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

Explanation:

 x + y = 0           (1)

 y + z = 0            (2)

x + z = 0             (3)

Subtracting 1 and 2 we get x-z=0   (4)

adding 3 and 4 we get x-0,y=0 and z=0


Q7. The centre of the sphere through the points ( 0 , 3 , 4 ) , ( 0 , 5 , 0 ) , ( 4 , 0 , 3 ) and ( - 3 , 4 , 0 ) is
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:
No Explaination.


Q8. The points A ( 0 , 0 , 0 ) , B ( 1 ,  , 0 ) , C ( 2 , 0 , 0 ) and D ( 1 , 0 , ) are the vertices of
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:
No Explaination.


Q9. The locus of a first degree equation in x, y, z is a
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:

first degree equation in x, y, z can be written in the form Ax+By+Cz+d=0 Which represent a plane Where A,B and C are the direction ratios of normal to the plane

Q10. The number of spheres of a given radius which touch the coordinate planes is
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:
No Explaination.
