62This is a geometry problem more than coordinate geometry
The circle is of radius 3
the point is at distance 5 from the circle.
The length of the tangent will be 4.
We can, using this geometry find the length fo the chord!
THat will fix this easily :)
If you are nto able to get the final answer do ask ... :)
