The vertex of the parabola $(y - 1)^2 = 8(x - 1)$ is at the centre of a circle and the parabola cuts that circle at the ends of its latus rectum. Then the equation of that circle is

The power of the point $B(-1, 1)$ with respect to the circle $S \equiv x^2+y^2-2x-4y+3=0$ is $p$. If the length of the tangent drawn from $B$ to the circle $S=0$ is $t$,then the point $(2, 3)$ with respect to the circle $S^{\prime}=0$ having centre at $(p, t^2)$ and passing through the origin:

$A$ circle $C$ of radius $2$ lies in the second quadrant and touches both the coordinate axes. Let $r$ be the radius of a circle that has its centre at the point $(2, 5)$ and intersects the circle $C$ at exactly two points. If the set of all possible values of $r$ is the interval $(\alpha, \beta)$,then $3 \beta - 2 \alpha$ is equal to:

The equation of the common tangent to the circle $x^{2}+y^{2}=2$ and the parabola $y^{2}=8x$ is $x+y=k$. Then the value of $k$ is
