10-1.Circle and System of Circles
medium
If one of the diameters of the circle $x^{2}+y^{2}-2 x-6 y+6=0$ is a chord of another circle $'C'$, whose center is at $(2,1),$ then its radius is..........
A
$2$
B
$3$
C
$6$
D
$4$
(JEE MAIN-2021)
Solution

$x^{2}+y^{2}+2 x-6 y+6=0$
center $(1,3)$
radius $=2$
distance between $(1,3)$ and $(2,1)$ is $\sqrt{5}$
$\therefore(\sqrt{5})^{2}+(2)^{2}=r^{2}$
$\Rightarrow r =3$
