Solution

The correct option is C 5 cm
When the point A and B are connected using a straight line, that forms the radius of the larger circle which is the shortest distance between A and B.
So the radius of larger circle = radius of inner circle + distance of separation of two circles.
Larger radius = 3 + 2 = 5 cm
