Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
take -2,1 and -3,2
x+2*x+3+y-1*y-2 + a(x+y+1) = 0
0,0 satisfies above
6+2+a = 0
a=-8
therefore equation is
x+2*x+3+y-1*y-2 -8(x+y+1) =0
by comparing with above you can get radius and center of circle
this can be also solved by perpendicular bisectors method
perpendicular bisector of 0,0 and -2,1 = 2x-y+5/2 = 0
perpendicular bisector of -2,1 and -3,2 = x-y+4 = 0
intersection of perpendicular bisectors gives centre
x=3/2 and y=13/2
and distance of this from one of the coordinate gives radius
