Let $A = (0, 4)$ and $B = (2 \cos \theta, 2 \sin \theta)$,for some $0 < \theta < \frac{\pi}{2}$. Let $P$ divide the line segment $AB$ in the ratio $2:3$ internally. The locus of $P$ is

Let the point $(p, p+1)$ lie inside the region $E = \{(x, y) : 3-x \leq y \leq \sqrt{9-x^2}, 0 \leq x \leq 3\}$. If the set of all values of $p$ is the interval $(a, b)$,then $b^2+b-a^2$ is equal to $.................$.

$A$ line segment $AM = a$ moves in the $XOY$ plane such that $AM$ is parallel to the $X$-axis. If $A$ moves along the circle $x^2 + y^2 = a^2$,then the locus of $M$ is

The set of all points that are at a distance of at least $2$ units from $(-3, 0)$ is

The locus of the centre of the circles which touch both the circles $x^{2}+y^{2}=a^{2}$ and $x^{2}+y^{2}=4ax$ externally is

The centres of those circles which touch the circle $x^{2} + y^{2} - 8x - 8y - 4 = 0$ externally and also touch the $x$-axis,lie on:
