13. Let the equation of the circle be,
(x – h)2 + (y – k)2 = r2 – 0-----(i)
As the circle is passing through (0, 0) we get,
(0 – h)2 + (0 – k)2 = r2
(–h)2 + (–k)2 = r2
h2 + k2 = r2--------(ii)
The circle also makes intercepts a and b on the cooperate axes.
Let intercept on x–axis be 'a' and on y–axis be 'b'
?Circle also passes through (a, 0) and (0, b)
Putting x = a and y = 0 in (i)
(a – h)2 + (0 – k)2 = r2
a2 + h2 – 2.a.h + (–k)2 = r2
a2 – 2ah + h2 + k2 = r2
Putting value of r2 from (ii), we get
a2 – 2ah + h2 + k2 = h2 + k2
a2 = 2ah
a = 2h
h =
Putting x = 0 andy = b in (i).
(0 – h)2 + (

12. Given,
r = 5.
Since the centre lies on x – axis.
k = 0.
? Centre of circle = (h, k) = (h, 0)
The equation of the circle in given by,
(x – h)2 + (y – k)2 = r2
(x – h)2 + (y – 0)2 = (5)2
(x – h)2 + y2 = 25- (i)
Since the curie parses through the point (2, 3),
Putting x = 2 and y = 3 in equation (1), We get.
(2 – h)2 + (3)2 = 25
22 + h2 – 22.h + 9 = 25
4 + h2– 4h + 9 = 25
h2 – 4h + 13 – 25 = 0
h2 – 4h – 12 = 0
h2 – (6 – 2)h – 12 = 0
h2 – 6h + 2h – 12 – 0
h (h – 6) + 2 (h – 6) = 0
(h – 6) (h + 2) = 0
h = 6 and h = –2
When h = 6,
From (i), Equation of circle is,
(x –6)2 + y2 = 25
(x – 6)2 + (y –

11. Let the equation of the circle be.
(x – h)2 + (y – k)2 = r2 -----(i)
Since the circle passes through (2, 3) and (–1, 1),
Putting x = 2 and y = 3 in (i),
(2 – h)2 + (3 – k)2 = r2---------(ii)
Putting x = –1 and y = 1 in (i),
(–1 – h)2 + (1 – k)2 = r2
Equating equation (ii) and (iii), We get:–
(2 – h)2 + (3 – k)2 = (–1 – h)2 + (1 – k)2
22 + h2 – 2.2.h + 32 + k2 – 2.3.k = (–1)2 + h2 – 2.(–1).h + 12 + k2 – 2(1)(k)
4 + h2 – 4h + 9 + k2 – 6k = 1 + h2 + 2h + 1 + k2 – 2k
13 – 4h – 6k = 2 + 2h – 2k
–4h – 2h – 6k + 2k = 2 – 13
–6h – 4k = 11

10. Let the equation of the circle be,
(x – h)2 + (y – k)2 = r2 - (i)
Since the circle passes through (4, 1) and (6, 5)
Putting x = 4 and y = 1 in (i),
(4 – h)2 + (1 – k)2 = 22 - (ii)
Putting x = 6 and y = 5 in (i),
(6 – h)2 + (5 – k)2 = r2- (iii)
Equating equation (ii) and (iii), We get.
(4 – h)2 + (1 – k)2 = (6 – h)2 + (5 – k)2
42 + h2 – 2.4.h + 12 + k2 – 2.1.k = 62 + h2 – 2.6.h + 52 + k2 – 2.5.k
16 + h2 – 8h + 1 + k2 – 2k = 36 + h2 – 12h + 25 + k2 – 10k
17 + h2 – 8h + k2 – 2k = 61 + h2 – 12h + k2 – 10k
–8h + 12h – 2k + 10k = 61 – 17
4h + 8k = 44
4 (h + 2k) =

9. 2x2 + 2y2= x
2(x2 + y2) = x
x2 + y2 =
x2 – + y2= 0
x2 – 2 + y2 = 0
x2 –
x2 –
Using,
(a – b)2 = a2 + b2 – 2ab,
We get
Comparing with the equation of a circle (x – h)2 + (y – k)2 = r2
We get,
h = , k = 0, r =
?Centre = (h, k) =
Radian = r =
