Solution

The correct option is B

Touch each other externally


Given circles,

x2+y24x6y12=0 - - - - - - (1)

x2+y2+6x+18y+26=0 - - - - - - (2)

Let the circle be c1&c2 and radii r1&r2 of circle (1) and (2) respectively.

c1(2, 3) ,c2(3,9)

r1=g2+f2c=4+9+12=5

r2=g2+f2c=9+8126=8

c1c2=(2+3)2+(3+9)2=25+144=169=13

c1c2=r1+r2

So,both the circle touch each other externally.

Correct option is B.
