Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(16\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let \(\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{x}, \mathrm{y})\) \(x^{2}+y^{2}+x^{2}+(y-1)^{2}+(x-1)^{2}+y^{2}+(x-1)^{2}+(y-1)^{2}=18;\) \(\Rightarrow 4\left(x^{2}+y^{2}\right)-4 y-4 x=14\) \(\Rightarrow x^{2}+y^{2}-x-y-\frac{7}{2}=0\) \(d=2 \sqrt{\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{7}{2}}\)…
