If the length tangent drawn from the ...

If the length tangent drawn from the point (5, 3) to the circle `x^2+y^2+2x+k y+17=0` is 7, then find the value of `kdot`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`-4`
According to the question,
`sqrt((5)^(2)+(3)^(2)+2(5)+k(3)+17)=7`
or `61+3k=49` or `k= -4`
