MCQ
The equation x2 + y2 - 2x + 4y + 5 = 0 represents:
- AA point
- BA pair of straight lines
- CA circle of non zero radius
- DNone of these
Solution:
x2 + y2 - 2x + 4y + 5 = 0
(x - 1)2 + (y + 2)2 -5 + 5 = 0
⇒ (x - 1)2 + (y + 2)2 = 0
Since, radius is 0, its a point
Alternative method:
Here, a = b = 1
$\text{r}=\sqrt{1+4-5=0}$
a circle of radius 0. So, its a point.
