Point M moves on the circle (x-4)^2+(y-...

Point M moves on the circle `(x-4)^2+(y-8)^2=20`. Then it brokes away from it and moving along a tangent to the circle, cuts the x-axis at the point (-2,0). The co-ordinates of a point on the circle at which the moving point broke away is

A

`((42)/(5),(36)/(5))`

B

`(-(2)/(5),(44)/(5))`

C

(6,4)

D

(2,4)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
Therefore, the points are (6,4) and `(-(2)/(5),(44)/(5))`
