We know that the point from which lengths of tangents are equal in length is radical centre of the given three circles Radical axis of first two circles is
S1 –S2 = 0
8x–16 = 0 or x–2 = 0___________________(1)
and radical axis of second and third is
–8x–10y–9 = 0_________________________(2)
Solving (1) and (2) equations we get
x=2, –16–10y–9 = 0
10y = –25
y = \(\frac{-25}{10}=\frac{-5}{2}
\)
∴ Radical centre P is (2, –5/2)
