  1. A \(x^{2}+y^{2}+3 x-5=0\)
  2. B \(x^{2}+y^{2}-4 x+2=0\)
  3. C \(x^{2}+y^{2}+6 x-4=0\)
  4. D \(x^{2}+y^{2}-4 y-2=0\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(x^{2}+y^{2}+3 x-5=0\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let \(\quad S_{1}=x^{2}+y^{2}-6 x-8=0\) and \(\quad S_{2}=x^{2}+y^{2}-6=0\) Now, the equation of the circle passing through the point (1,1) and the point of intersection of \(S_{1}\) and \(S_{2}\) is \[ S_{1}+\lambda S_{2}=0 \]…
