Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(x^2+y^2-4 x-6 y+5=0\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Center of square: \((h, k) = (2, 3)\). Distance from center \((2, 3)\) to line \(x+y-9=0\) (one of the square's sides): \(r = \frac{|2+3-9|}{\sqrt{1^2+1^2}} = \frac{|-4|}{\sqrt{2}} = 2\sqrt{2}\). Equation of circle: \((x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2\).…
