On a circular path of radius 6 m a boy starts from a point $A$ on the circumference and walks along a chord $AB$ of length 3 m. He then walks along another chord $BC$ of length 2 m to reach point $C$. The point $B$ lies on the minor arc $AC$. The distance between point $C$ from point $A$ is

If the shortest distance of a given point to a given circle is $4 \, \text{cm}$ and the longest distance is $9 \, \text{cm}$, then the radius of the circle is

The circle $x^2 + y^2 - 6x - 10y + k = 0$ does not touch or intersect the coordinate axes. If the point $(1, 4)$ does not lie outside the circle, and the range of $k$ is $(a, b]$, then $a + b$ is
