Question:medium

If the length of the chord of the line \[ x+y-1=0 \] of the circle \[ x^2+y^2-6x+2fy-2=0\qquad(f>0) \] is \[ \frac{6\sqrt7}{\sqrt2}, \] then the length of the intercept made by this circle on the \(Y\)-axis is

Show Hint

The length of a chord at perpendicular distance \(d\) from the centre is \[ \boxed{2\sqrt{r^2-d^2}}. \] To find the intercept on an axis, substitute the corresponding coordinate (\(x=0\) or \(y=0\)) in the circle equation.
