Answer» Correct Answer - C The circle is `x^(2)+y^(2)-4x-8y-5=0` Its centre is `(2,4)` and radius is `sqrt(4+16+5)=5` If the circle intersects the line `3x-4y=m` at two distinct points, then the length of the perpendicular from the centre is less than the radius, i.e., `(|6-16-m|)/(5) lt5` `implies |10+m| lt25` `implies 25 lt m +10lt25` `implies -35ltmlt15` |
