Let the shortest distance from $(a, 0)$,$a > 0$,to the parabola $y^2 = 4x$ be $4$. Then the equation of the circle passing through the point $(a, 0)$ and the focus of the parabola,and having its centre on the axis of the parabola is:

If the shortest distance between the parabola $y^2=4x$ and the circle $x^2+y^2-4x-16y+64=0$ is $d$,then $d^2$ is equal to:

Let $M = \{(x, y) \in \mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R} : x^2 + y^2 \leq r^2\}$,where $r > 0$. Consider the geometric progression $a_n = \frac{1}{2^{n-1}}$,$n = 1, 2, 3, \ldots$. Let $S_0 = 0$ and,for $n \geq 1$,let $S_n$ denote the sum of the first $n$ terms of this progression. For $n \geq 1$,let $C_n$ denote the circle with center $(S_{n-1}, 0)$ and radius $a_n$,and $D_n$ denote the circle with center $(S_{n-1}, S_{n-1})$ and radius $a_n$.

If a variable line,$3x + 4y - \lambda = 0$,is such that the two circles $x^2 + y^2 - 2x - 2y + 1 = 0$ and $x^2 + y^2 - 18x - 2y + 78 = 0$ are on its opposite sides,then the set of all values of $\lambda$ is the interval

Let $C_i \equiv x^2 + y^2 = i^2$ for $i = 1, 2, 3$ be three circles. There are $4i$ points on the circumference of each circle $C_i$. If no three of all the points on the three circles are collinear,then the number of triangles that can be formed using these points whose circumcentre does not lie on the origin is:
