7 a The circle has centre (10, 0) and radius 5 and therefore has the equation
(x − 10)2 + y2 = 25.
b The line with equation y = mx meets the circle with equation (x − 10)2 + y2 = 25.
Therefore x satisfies the equation (x − 10)2 + (mx)2 = 25
Expanding and rearranging gives x2 − 20x + 100 + m2 x2 = 25
and therefore (1 + m2 )x2 − 20x + 75 = 0

d When m2 = , the equation (1 + m2 )x2 − 20x + 75 = 0 becomes

Multiplying both sides of the equation by 3 gives

The left-hand side is a perfect square and hence
(2x − 15)2 = 0
