Length of the perpendicular on the given line from origin \mathrm{' p ' =\sqrt{5}}

Length of the chord \mathrm{=2 \sqrt{r^2-p^2}=2 \sqrt{5}}

So, the area of the triangle \mathrm{=\frac{1}{2} \times base \times height}

\mathrm{ =\frac{1}{2} \times 2 \sqrt{5} \times \sqrt{5}=5 }

Hence option 2 is correct.
