Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\sqrt{130}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given vertices of the triangle \({ABC} A(-1,3), {B}(3,5)\) and \({C}(5,7)\) According to the question, \({PA}={PB}={PC}\) \( \begin{aligned} & \sqrt{(x+1)^2+(y-3)^2}=\sqrt{(x-3)^2+(y-5)^2}= \\ & \sqrt{(x-5)^2+(y-7)^2} \end{aligned} \) Take square both sides,…
