Consider the two lines  L1,L2  and  a circle C
L1:2x+3y+p3=0,L2:2x+3y+p+3=0 
 C:x2+y2+6x+10y+30=0,(pI)
It is given that at least one of the lines  L1,L2  is a chord of C then the probability that both are chords of C is

For  L1  to be a chord of the circle, possible integral value of p are {17,18,.....31} . Similarly, for L2 to be a chord, possible integral value of p are  {11,12,......,25}.
So, in total possible p=21 and common  values are 9.
Hence, probability =921=37
