Solution

The correct option is B 59
Let s1:x2+y2+8x4y+c=0
centre is 4:(4,2) and radius =20c
and s2:x2+y2+2x+4y11=0
centre is C2:(1,2) and r2=5+11=4
these two circle one touching each other
c1c2=r1+r2
9+16=20c+4
54=20c
c=19
s3:x2+y26x+8y+k=0
centre c3:(3,4)r2=25k
Since, s1 and s3 cuts orthogonally,
r21+r23=(c1c3)2
Hence, (20c)+(25k)=(45+36)2
k=2685=59
