The equation of a circle passing through origin and making $\mathrm{x}$ -intercept 3 and $\mathrm{y}$ - intercept $-5$ is
  1. $x^{2}+y^{2}+3 x+5 y=0$
  2. $x^{2}+y^{2}+3 x-5 y=0$
  3. $x^{2}+y^{2}-3 x+5 y=0$
  4. $x^{2}+y^{2}-3 x-5 y=0$

Solution

$\because A(3,0), B(0,-5)$ be the co-ordinate of ends of diameter AB. By diameter form, equation of circle is $\begin{array}{l} (x-3)(x-0)+(y-0)(y+5)=0 \\ x^{2}-3 x+y^{2}+5 y=0 \Rightarrow x^{2}+y^{2}-3 x+5 y=0 \end{array}$
