Let a circle pass through the origin and its centre be the point of intersection of two mutually perpendicular lines $x + (k-1)y + 3 = 0$ and $2x + ky - 4 = 0$. If the line $x - y + 2 = 0$ intersects the circle at the points $A$ and $B$, then $(AB)^2$ is equal to:

  • A
    $10$
  • B
    $27$
  • C
    $18$
  • D
    $34$
