Q.
The set of values of p for which the power of a point (2,5) is negative with respect to a circle x2+y2−8x−12y+p=0 which neither touches the axes nor cuts them are
x2+y2−8x−12y+p=0
Power of (2,5) is S1=4+25−16−60+P=P−47<0⇒P<47
Circle neither touches nor cuts coordinate axes g2−c<0⇒16−p<0⇒p>16 f2−c<0⇒36−p<0⇒p>36
taking intersection P∈(36,47)
