Equation of any circle passing through t...

Equation of any circle passing through the point(s) of intersection of circle `S=0` and line `L=0` is `S + kL = 0`. Let `P(x_1, y_1)` be a point outside the circle `x^2 + y^2 = a^2` and `PA and PB` be two tangents drawn to this circle from `P` touching the circle at `A and B`. On the basis of the above information : Equation of circumcircle of `DeltaPAB` is : (A) `x^2 + y^2 + xx_1 + yy_1 = 0` (B) `x^2 + y^2 + xx_1 - yy_1 = 0` (C) `x^2 + y^2 + xx_1 - yy_1 - a^2 = 0` (D) `x^2 + y^2 - xx_1 - yy_1 - a^2 = 0`
