Find the equation of the circle which passes through the points `(7, 0)`, (0, sqrt(7))` and has its centre on the x-axis.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
The required equation of the circle is `x^(2) + y^(2) - 6x - 7 = 0`

[Hint : Since the centre of the circle lies on x-axis, therefore the value of k is zero, i.e., we can take the centre of the circle as (h, 0)]
