MCQ
Point from which two distinct tangents can be drawn on two different branches of the hyperbola $\frac{{{x^2}}}{{25}} - \frac{{{y^2}}}{{16}} = \,1$ but no two different tangent can be drawn to the circle $x^2 + y^2 = 36$ is
  • A
    $(1,6)$
  • $(1,3)$
  • C
    $(7,1)$
  • D
    $(1,\frac{1}{2})$
