The coordinates of the middle point of the chord cut off by  

2x5y+18=0 on the circle x2+y26x+2y54=0, 

are 

a
(1, 4)
b
(2, 4)
c
(4, 1)
d
(1, 1)

detailed solution

Correct option is A

The mid point is the intersection of the chord and perpendicular line on it from the centre (3, -1). The equation of the perpendicular line is 5x+2y-13=0. Therefore, the required point is  (1, 4).
