To solve the problem, we need to find the least radius of the circumcircle of triangle \( PAB \) formed by the tangents drawn from point \( P \) on the directrix of the given parabola. Let's break down the steps systematically. ### Step 1: Identify the Parabola and Directrix The given parabola is: \[ (x - 2)^2 + (y - 3)^2 = \frac{(5x - 12y + 3)^2}{160} \] We need to identify the focus and directrix of this parabola. ...
