For each natural number k, let $${C_k}$$ denote the circle with radius k centimetres and centre at the origin. On the circle $${C_k}$$, a-particle moves k centimetres in the counter-clockwise direction. After completing its motion on $${C_k}$$, the particle moves to $${C_{k + 1}}$$ in the radial direction. The motion of the patticle continues in the manner. The particle starts at (1, 0). If the particle crosses the positive direction of the x-axis for the first time on the circle $${C_n}$$ then n = ..............

The chords of contact of the pair of tangents drawn from each point on the line 2x + y = 4 to circle $${x^2} + {y^2} = 1$$ pass through the point........................

Let C be any circle with centre $$\,\left( {0\, , \sqrt {2} } \right)$$. Prove that at the most two rational points can to there on C. (A rational point is a point both of whose coordinates are rational numbers.)

A tangent to the ellipse x² + 4y² = 4 meets the ellipse x² + 2y² = 6 at P and Q. Prove that the tangents at P and Q of the ellipse x² + 2y² = 6 are at right angles.
