If the tangents at the points $P$ and $Q$ on the circle $x ^2+ y ^2-2 x + y =5$ meet at the point $R \left(\frac{9}{4}, 2\right)$, then the area of the triangle $PQR$ is
$\frac{13}{4}$
$\frac{13}{8}$
$\frac{5}{4}$
$\frac{5}{8}$
The equations of the tangents to the circle ${x^2} + {y^2} = {a^2}$ parallel to the line $\sqrt 3 x + y + 3 = 0$ are
A circle $C_{1}$ passes through the origin $O$ and has diameter $4$ on the positive $x$-axis. The line $y =2 x$ gives a chord $OA$ of a circle $C _{1}$. Let $C _{2}$ be the circle with $OA$ as a diameter. If the tangent to $C _{2}$ at the point $A$ meets the $x$-axis at $P$ and $y$-axis at $Q$, then $QA : AP$ is equal to.
The equations of the tangents drawn from the point $(0, 1)$ to the circle ${x^2} + {y^2} - 2x + 4y = 0$ are
If a circle, whose centre is $(-1, 1)$ touches the straight line $x + 2y + 12 = 0$, then the coordinates of the point of contact are
If the centre of a circle is $(-6, 8)$ and it passes through the origin, then equation to its tangent at the origin, is
