If the point (1, 4) lies inside the circle and the circle does not touch or intersect the coordinate axes, then the set of all possible values of p is the interval
Answer: (3)
Solution
The circle has centre (3, −5) and radius . For it to miss the x-axis the radius must be less than 5, giving p > 9; to miss the y-axis it must be less than 3, giving p > 25. The "inside"
