PQS = 40 because if you look at the image above it half equals 20 and 20+20=40
Consider, in ΔRPQ,
RP = R (Radius of larger circle)
PQ = r (radius of smaller circle)
We have to find, RQ, by Pythagoras theorem,
RP² = PQ²+RQ²
R² = r²+RQ²
RQ² = R²-r²
RQ = √(R²-r²
Now, as RQ & QS both are tangents of the smaller circle, their lengths must be equal. so, RS = 2 × RQ
RS = 2√(R²-r²)

Answer:
Using y = mx + c
slope = -17+5/3-1 = -12/2 = -6
Using point (1 , - 5)
y + 5 = -6(x - 1)
y + 5 = - 6x + 6
y = - 6x + 6 - 5
y = - 6x + 1
Hope this helps.
