9. Find the equation of a circle, two of whose diameters are along the straight lines x – 2y = 7 and x + 2y + 1 = 0 and which passes through the point (1, 4).


Let AB and EF be the two diameters of the circle and have equations 
         x - 2y = 7 and x + 2y = -1 respectively.
The centre C of the circle is the point of intersection of the two diameters
∴  For C,
                      x - 2y = 7                                                       ...(i)
                      x + 2y = -1                                                     ...(ii)
Adding, we get           2x = 6                rightwards double arrow       x = 3
and                      3 - 2y = 7                rightwards double arrow       y = -2
∴ The co-ordinates of centre C of the circle are (3, -2)
Also, the circle passes through point P(1, 4)
∴ Radius of the circle, r = CP = space space square root of left parenthesis 1 minus 3 right parenthesis squared plus left parenthesis 4 plus 2 right parenthesis squared end root equals space square root of 4 plus 36 end root space equals space square root of 40
rightwards double arrow                            h = 3, k = -2, space space straight r equals square root of 40
The equation of the circle is:
