Length AO = length BO
As, both are the radius of given circle,
Therefore, By applying distance formula,
(2-(-1))² + (y-(-3y))²= (5-2)² + (7-(-3y))²
=>9+16y² =9 +(7+3y)²
=>16y²=49+9y²+42y
=>7y²-42y-49=0
=>y²-6y-7=0
=>y²-7y+y-7=0
=>y(y-7)+1(y-7)=0
(y-7)=0 or (y+1)=0
y=7 or y=-1

Answer:
Point A(-1,y) and B(5,7) lie on a circle with Centre O(2,-3y). Find values of y. Hence find the radius of the circle.
Since O is the centre of the circle and A,B are points on its circumference.
OA=OB=Radius
When y=-1: The coordinates of O,A and B are O(2,3), A(-1,-1) and B(5,7) respectively.
Radius=OA=
When y=7: The coordinates O,A and B are O(2,-21), A(-1,7) and B(5,7) respectively.
Radius=OA=
