A circle passes through the points of intersection of the parabola y+1=(x–4)^2 and x-axis.Then the length of tangent from origin to the circle is

Answer»

8
15
`SQRT8`
`sqrt15`

Solution :`(y+1)=(x-4)^2`
Put y =0
`(x-4)^2=1`
x-4=1 (OR) x-4=-1
x=5 (OR) x=3

`OT^2=OA.OB`
`OT^2=3xx5`
`RARR OT=sqrt15`
