Answer the following by appropriately matching the lists based on the information given in the paragraph
Let the circles C1 : x2 + y2 = 9 and C2 : (x – 3)2 + (y – 4)2 = 16, intersect at the points X and Y.
Suppose that another circle C3 : (x – h)2 + (y – k)2 = r2 satisfies the following conditions :
(i) centre of C3 is collinear with the centres of C1 and C2,
(ii) C1 and C2 both lie inside C3, and
(iii) C3 touches C1 at M and C2 at N.
Let the line through X and Y intersect C3 at Z and W, and let a common tangent of C1 and C3 be a tangent to the parabola x2 = 8αy.
There are some expression given in the List-I whose values are given in List-II below:
| List - I | List - II |
| (I) 2h + k | (P) 6 |
| (II) | (Q) |
| (III) | (R) |
| (IV) α | (S) |
| (T) | |
| (U) |

MC1 + C1C2 + C2N = 2r
⇒ 3 + 5 + 4 = 2r ⇒ r = 6 ⇒ Radius of C3 = 6
Suppose centre of C3 be (0 + r4 cos θ, 0 + r4 sin θ),
C3 = = (h, k) ⇒ 2h + k = 6
Equation of ZW and XY is 3x + 4y – 9 = 0
(common chord of circle C1 = 0 and C2 = 0)


Let length of perpendicular from M to ZW be
C1 : x2 + y2 – 9 = 0
common tangent to C1 and C3 is common chord of C1 and C3 is 3x + 4y + 15 = 0.
Now, 3x + 4y + 15 = 0 is tangent to parabola x2 = 8αy.
x2 = 8α ⇒ 4x2 + 24αx + 120α = 0
D = 0 ⇒
