Solution

The correct option is D The radius of the circle is r=62+33 units
Given lines are x+y=2 and xy=2 which are perpendicular in nature,


We know that,
r=hk22=h+k22=(h+4)2+(k3)2
Now, using the above conditions
hk22=h+k22
By observation, point (4,3) and centre of the circle lies on the same side of both the lines, so
(hk22)=(h+k22)k=0
Now,
h+k22=(h+4)2+(k3)2h22=(h+4)2+9
Squaring on both sides, we get
(h2)2=2(h2+8h+25)h2+20h+46=0 h=20±4001842h=10±36

So, the centre of the circle are
(10+36,0) and (1036,0)
Therefore,
r=|10+362|2 and r=|10362|2r=|62+33| and r=|6233|r=6233 and r=62+33
