Let BBB be the centre of the circle x2+y2−2x+4y+1=0.{x}^{2}+{y}^{2}-2x+4y+1=0.x2+y2−2x+4y+1=0. Let the tangents at two points PPP and QQQ on the circle intersect at the point A(3,1).A(3,1).A(3,1). Then 8(areaΔAPQareaΔBPQ)8(\frac{\mathrm{area}\Delta \mathrm{APQ}}{\mathrm{area}\Delta \mathrm{BPQ}})8(areaΔBPQareaΔAPQ​) is equal to .
