  1. A \(x^2+y^2-6 x+6 y+9=0\)
  2. B \(x^2+y^2-6 x-6 y+9=0\)
  3. C \(x^2+y^2+6 x-6 y+9=0\)
  4. D \(x^2+y^2+6 x+6 y+9=0\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(x^2+y^2-6 x+6 y+9=0\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, radius \(=3\), Since, the circle touching both the coordinate axes in 4th quadrant, so equation is \(\begin{gathered}\quad(x-3)^2+(y+3)^2=3^2 \\ \Rightarrow \quad x^2+9-6 x+y^2+9+6 y=9 \\ \Rightarrow \quad x^2+y^2-6 x+6 y+9=0\end{gathered}\)
