Let $O$ be the centre of the circle $x^2 + y^2 = r^2$,where $r > \frac{\sqrt{5}}{2}$. Suppose $PQ$ is a chord of this circle and the equation of the line passing through $P$ and $Q$ is $2x + 4y = 5$. If the centre of the circumcircle of the triangle $OPQ$ lies on the line $x + 2y = 4$,then the value of $r$ is:

  • A
    $1$
  • B
    $2$
  • C
    $3$
  • D
    $4$
