A circle C whose radius is 1 unit touches the x-axis at point A. The center Q of C lies in the first quadrant. The tangent from the origin O to the circle touches it at T and a point P lies on its such that `Delta OAP` is a right - angles triangle at A and its perimeter is 8 units.
The length of PQ is

A

`{x-(2+sqrt3)}^2+(y-1)^2=`

B

`{x-(sqrt3+sqrt2)}^2 +(y-1)^2=1`

C

`{x-sqrt3)^2 +(y-2)^2=1`
