$A$ line drawn through the point $P(4, 7)$ cuts the circle $x^2 + y^2 = 9$ at the points $A$ and $B$. Then $PA \cdot PB$ is equal to

For different real non-zero numbers $x_1, x_2, x_3$ and $x_4$,suppose the points $(x_1, \frac{1}{x_1}), (x_2, \frac{1}{x_2}), (x_3, \frac{1}{x_3})$ and $(x_4, \frac{1}{x_4})$ lie on the boundary of a circle of radius $4$. Then,the value of $x_1 x_2 x_3 x_4$ is

In a right triangle $ABC$,right-angled at $A$,a semicircle is described on the leg $AC$ as diameter. If $D$ is the point of intersection of the hypotenuse $BC$ and the semicircle,then the length $AC$ is equal to:

Consider a pair of circles $(|x| - 1)^2 + y^2 = 1$. Ram is moving along the circle centered at $(1, 0)$ in the clockwise direction at a rate of $2 \ m/s$,and Shyam is moving along the circle centered at $(-1, 0)$ in the anticlockwise direction at a rate of $1 \ m/s$. If Ram and Shyam start their journey from the origin $(0, 0)$,then the rate of change of the distance between Ram and Shyam at the instant when Ram crosses the $x$-axis for the first time is:

The area (in $sq. units$) of the smaller of the two circles that touch the parabola $y^2 = 4x$ at the point $(1, 2)$ and the $x$-axis is

If the lines $2x + y + 12 = 0$ and $kx - 3y - 10 = 0$ are conjugate with respect to the circle $x^2 + y^2 - 4x + 3y - 1 = 0$,then $k =$
