The equation of a circle with centre \((5,4)\) and touch the \(Y\)-axis is

The equation of a circle with centre \((5,4)\) and touch the \(Y\)-axis is
  1. \(x^2+y^2-10 x-8 y-16=0\)
  2. \(x^2+y^2-10 x-8 y-61=0\)
  3. \(x^2+y^2+10 x+8 y+16=0\)
  4. \(x^2+y^2-10 x-8 y+16=0\)

Solution

Centre \((5,4)\) circle touches \(Y\)-axis So, radius \(=5\) units Equation of circle \(\Rightarrow(x-5)^2+(y-4)^2=5^2\) \(\Rightarrow x^2+y^2-10 x-8 y+16=0\)
