Pls explain the question LET C BE A CIRCLE ITH CENTRE 0,0 AND RADIUS = 3 UNIT THEN THE EQUATION OF THE LOCUS OF THE MID POINTS OF THE CHORD THAT SUBTEND AN ANGLE = 2PI/3?
Let chord AB subtends an angle at the centre.
Let OP be the perpendicular bisector of the chord AB as shown below:
The equation of the circle is . So, the equation of the chord with mid-point at will be
I
From (i) and (ii) the locus of the mid-point (h, k) will be
