The equation of the circle is 44 x2+y2−4x+2y−4=0 Comparing this with the general form x2+y2+2gx+2fy+c=0 We have ‌2g‌=−4 ⇒‌g‌=−2‌ and ‌2f=2 ⇒‌f‌=1 So, the center of the circle C is (−g,−f)=(2,−1) And, the radius is r=√g2+f2−c ‌=√(−2)2+(1)2−(−4) ‌=√4+1+4=√9=3 The point from which tangents are drawn is P=(−3,1) Now, the circumcircle of △PAB is the circle with PC as its diameter. The center of this circumcircle is the mid-point of PC. Mid-point M=(‌
