    $(2, 17)$
  • B
    $[13, 23]$
  • C
    $[12, 21]$

Tangents are drawn to the circle $x^2 + y^2 = 1$ at the points where it is met by the circles $x^2 + y^2 - (\lambda + 6)x + (8 - 2\lambda)y - 3 = 0$,where $\lambda$ is a variable. The locus of the point of intersection of these tangents is:

For the given circle $2x^2 + 2y^2 = 5$ and the parabola $y^2 = 4\sqrt{5}x$:
Statement-$I$: The equation of the common tangent to these curves is $y = x + \sqrt{5}$.
Statement-$II$: If the line $y = mx + \frac{\sqrt{5}}{m} (m \neq 0)$ is a common tangent,then $m$ satisfies $m^4 - 3m^2 + 2 = 0$.
