S≡x2+y2−6x+8y+k=0⇒(x−3)2+(y+4)2=25−kThus, the center of the circle C is at (3,−4)=(x1,y1).Let point P as (x2,y2) and point Q is the point that divides the line segment CP in the ratio −1:2Also, 3x+4y−43=0⇒y=4−3x+343So, slope of tangent line =4−3And slope of line CP=−(3−4)=34Thus, equation of line CP is⇒y−(−4)=34(x−3)⇒y+4=34(x−3)⇒y=34x−8Since, P lies on both the lines 3x+4y−43=0 and the line CP,∴3x+4(34x−8)−43=0⇒3x+316x−32−43=0⇒325x=75⇒x=9Now, y=34x−8=34(9)−8=12−8=4So, P=(9,4)Using section formula, we find the coordinates of Q(x,y).x=2−12x1−x2=12(3)−9=−3y=2−12y1−y2=12(−4)−4=−12So, Q=(x,y)=(−3,−12)The power of point Q w.r.t to circle, x2+y2−6x+8y+k=0 is(−3)2+(−12)2−6(−3)+8(−12)+k=9+144+18−96+k=75+k⋅⋅⋅⋅⋅⋅⋅(i)Now, the line 3x+4y−43=0 is tangent to the circle, the radius of the circle is the distance from the center C(3,−4) to the line 3x+4y−43=0So, r=A2+B2∣Ax0+By0+C∣=32+42∣3(3)+4(−4)−43∣=5∣9−16−43∣=550=10Now, r=25−k⇒10=25−k⇒25−k=100⇒k=−75Put k=−75 in Eq. (i), we get The power of Q w.r.t the circle=75+k=75−75=0
