Length of the tangent. Prove that the length t o f the tangent from the point P (x_(1), y(1)) to the circle x^(2)div y^(2) div2gx div2fydivc = 0 is given by t=sqrt(x_(1)^(2)+y_(1)^(2)+2gx_(1)+2fy_(1)+c) Hence, find the length of the tangent (i)to the circle x^(2) + y^(2) -2x-3y-1 = 0 from the origin, (2,5) (ii) to the circle x^(2)+y^(2)-6x+18y+4=-0 from the origin (iii) to the circle 3x^(2) +3y^(2)- 7x - 6y = 12 from the point (6, -7) (iv) to the circle x^(2) + y^(2) - 4 y - 5 = 0 from the point (4, 5).
