Let $P$ and $Q$ be the points on the line $\frac{x+3}{8}=\frac{y-4}{2}=\frac{z+1}{2}$ which are at a distance of $6$ units from the point $R(1,2,3)$. If the centroid of the triangle $PQR$ is $(\alpha, \beta, \gamma)$,then $\alpha^2+\beta^2+\gamma^2$ is:

  • A
    $26$
  • B
    $36$
  • C
    $18$
  • D
    $24$
