A circle has equation x^2+y^2-8x+10y+41=0. A point on the circle has coordinates (8,-3). Find the equation of the tangent to the circle passing through this point.

From the equation x2+y2-8x+10y+41=0, we can find the centre of the circle by the middle two terms -8x+10y and multiplying them by -1/2. So the coordinates of the circle centre are (4...
