Two circles $S_1 = px^2 + py^2 + 2g'x + 2f'y + d = 0$ and $S_2 = x^2 + y^2 + 2gx + 2fy + d' = 0$ have a common chord $PQ$. The equation of $PQ$ is

  • A
    $S_1 - S_2 = 0$
  • B
    $S_1 + S_2 = 0$
  • C
    $S_1 - pS_2 = 0$
  • D
    $S_1 + pS_2 = 0$

Consider two circles $C_1: x^2+y^2=25$ and $C_2: (x-\alpha)^2+y^2=16$,where $\alpha \in (5, 9)$. Let the angle between the two radii (one to each circle) drawn from one of the intersection points of $C_1$ and $C_2$ be $\sin^{-1}\left(\frac{\sqrt{63}}{8}\right)$. If the length of the common chord of $C_1$ and $C_2$ is $\beta$,then the value of $(\alpha \beta)^2$ equals:
