Answer:

The correct option is a. The length of MN is 25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information: MQ = 10 in, NP = 3 in and QP=24 in.

If the centers of two circles of radius r₁ and r₂ are d units apart, then the length of the direct common tangent between them is

l=\sqrt{d^2-(r_1-r_2)^2}

24=\sqrt{d^2-(10-3)^2}

Square both sides.

576=d^2-49

625=d^2

Take square root both sides.

25=d

Therefore  length of MN is 25 and option a is correct.
