Prove by mathematical induction that $$ - 5 - {{\left( {2n} \right)!} \over {{2^{2n}}{{\left( {n!} \right)}^2}}} \le {1 \over {{{\left( {3n + 1} \right)}^{1/2}}}}$$ for all positive integers $$n$$.

The area of the triangle formed by the tangents from the point (4, 3) to the circle $${x^2} + {y^2} = 9$$ and the line joining their points of contact is...................

Let a given line $$L_1$$ intersects the x and y axes at P and Q, respectively. Let another line $$L_2$$, perpendicular to $$L_1$$, cut the x and y axes at R and S, respectively. Show that the locus of the point of intersection of the lines PS and QR is a circle passing through the origin.

The circle $${x^2}\, + \,{y^2} - \,4x\, - 4y + \,4 = 0$$ is inscribed in a triangle which has two of its sides along the co-ordinate axes. The locus of the circumcentre of the triangle is $$x\, + \,y\, - xy\, + k\,{\left( {{x^2}\, + \,{y^2}} \right)^{1/2}} = 0$$. Find k.
