a) Equation of common chord is
x^2 + y^2 -2x +3y -6 -x^2 -y^2 +4x -4y +7 = 0. That is
2x -y +1 = 0.
b) Equation of the family of circles is:
x^2 + y^2 -2x +3y -6 +k(x^2 + y^2 -4x +4y -7) = 0. That is
(1+k)x^2 + (1+k)y^2 -(2 +4k)x +(3 +4k)y -(6 +7k) = 0...................(1)
Centre is [(1+2k)/(1+k), -(3+4k)/2(1+k)]................................(2)
Square of radius is [(1+2k)/(1+k)]^2 + [(3+4k)/2(1+k)]^2 + (6+7k).....(3)
bi) Substitute (1,-2) into (1), we get
(1+k) +4(1+k) -2 -4k -6 -8k -6 -7k = 0
-14k -7 = 0, so k=-1/2. therefore equation of circle is
x^2 + y^2 +2y -5 = 0.
bii)Since centre is on x+y=7, from (2) above, that is
(1+2k)/(1+k) -(3+4k)/2(1+k) = 7
2 + 4k - 3 - 4k = 14 +14k
k=-15/14. Substitute into (1), equation of circle is
-x^2 -y^2 +16x/7 -9y/7 +3/2 = 0
14x^2 + 14y^2 -32x +18y -21 = 0.
biii) Since area = 6pi, square of radius = 6, that is equation (3) = 6. Solve for k to get equation of circles.
