Detailed Solution

The coordinates of O are (5, 3) and the radius is 2.
The equation of tangent at A(7 ,3) is
7x+3y5(x+7)3(y+3)+30=0
i.e., 2x - 14 = 0
i.e., x = 7
The equation of tangent at B(5, 1) is
5x+y5(x+5)3(y+1)+30=0
i.e., 2y+2=0
i.e., y = 1
Therefore, the coordinates of C are (7,1). So,
area of OACB = 4
The equation of AB is x - y = 4 (radical axis).
The equation of the smallest circle is
(x7)(x5)+(y3)(y1)=0
i.e., x2+y212x4y+38=0
