The largest among the distances from the point $P(15,9)$ to the points on the circle $x^2+y^2-6 x-8 y-11=0$ is
The largest among the distances from the point $P(15,9)$ to the points on the circle $x^2+y^2-6 x-8 y-11=0$ is
- 12
- 13
- 19
- 7
Solution
$x^2+y^2-6 x-8 y-11=0, P(15,9)$
Centre $(C)=(3,4)$
$\text { Radius }=\sqrt{9+16+11}=6 ; C P=\sqrt{(15-3)^2+(9-4)^2}=13$
$\therefore$ Greatest distance $=13+6=19$
