Correct Option - 3
Detailed Solution:C= (2,3), O= (0,0). r = OC = √13.
Slope of OC = 3/2. Slope of PQ = -2/3.
Let P= (x, y). Vector CP = (x-2, y-3). Vector OC = (2,3).
CP.OC=0 ⇒ 2 (x-2)+3 (y-3)=0 ⇒ 2x+3y=13.
Also (x-2)²+ (y-3)²=13.
From 2x=13-3y, x= (13-3y)/2.
(13-3y)/2-2)²+ (y-3)²=13 ⇒ (9-3y)/2)²+ (y-3)²=13
(9 (y-3)²/4) + (y-3)² = 13 ⇒ (13/4) (y-3)²=13 ⇒ (y-3)²=4 ⇒ y-3=±2.
y=5 or y=1.
If y=5, x=-1. P= (-1,5).
If y=1, x=5. Q= (5,1).
