If the sum of the distances of a point from two perpendicular lines in a plane is 1, then its locus is

Determine all values of $$\alpha $$ for which the point $$\left( {\alpha ,\,{\alpha ^2}} \right)$$ lies insides the triangle formed by the lines $$$\matrix{ {2x + 3y - 1 = 0} \cr {x + 2y - 3 = 0} \cr {5x - 6y - 1 = 0} \cr } $$$

The centre of a circle passing through the points (0, 0), (1, 0) and touching the circle $${x^2} + {y^2} = 9$$is

Let a circle be given by 2x (x - a) + y (2y - b) = 0, $$(a\, \ne \,0,\,\,b\, \ne 0)$$. Find the condition on a abd b if two chords, each bisected by the x-axis, can be drawn to the circle from $$\left( {a,\,\,{b \over 2}} \right)$$.
