If a line along a chord of the circle

Equation of tangent to $y^{2}=30 x$

$y=m x+\frac{30}{4 m}$

Pass thru $(-30,0): \mathrm{a}=-30 \mathrm{~m}+\frac{30}{4 \mathrm{~m}} \Rightarrow \mathrm{m}^{2}=1 / 4$

$\Rightarrow \mathrm{m}=\frac{1}{2}$ or $\mathrm{m}=-\frac{1}{2}$

At $m=\frac{1}{2}: y=\frac{x}{2}+15 \Rightarrow x-2 y+30=0$

$\ell_{\mathrm{AB}}=2 \sqrt{\mathrm{R}^{2}-\mathrm{P}^{2}}=2 \sqrt{\frac{225}{4}-\frac{225}{5}}$

$\Rightarrow \ell_{\mathrm{AB}}=30 \cdot \sqrt{\frac{1}{20}}=\frac{15}{\sqrt{5}}=3 \sqrt{5}$
