The equation of a circle passing through the point (4, 5) having the centre at (2, 2) is –
A
x2 + y2 + 4x + 4y – 5 = 0
B
x2 + y2 – 4x – 4y – 5 = 0
C
x2 + y2– 4x = 13
D
x2 + y2 – 4x – 4y + 5 = 0
Answer
x2 + y2 – 4x – 4y – 5 = 0
Explanation
Solution
Centre (2, 2)
r = (4−2)2+(5−2)2
= 13
(x – 2)2 + (y – 2)2 = 13
