Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\sqrt{21}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given circles \(x^2+y^2-6 x-12 y+1=0\) and \(\mathrm{S}_1=0\) with centre \((-4,2)\) cut each other orthogonally \[ \begin{aligned} & \Rightarrow g_1=3, f_1=6, C_1=1 \\ & g_2=-4 f_2=2, C_2=x \end{aligned} \] Since for two circles…
