Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Centre of second circle (a point on the required circle)
x² + y² + 4x - 6y - 12 = 0
=> ( x +2 )² + ( y - 3 ) ² = 12 + 2² + 3²
=> the centre is at ( -2, 3 )
So our circle must pass through ( -2, 3 ).
Radius of the required circle
The centre is to be at ( 4, 5 ) and it passes through ( -2, 3 ).
The radius r is then the distance between these points, so:
r² = ( 4 - -2 )² + ( 5 - 3 )² = 6² + 2² = 36 + 4 = 40.
Equation of the circle
As the centre is at ( 4, 5 ) and the radius r satisfies r² = 40, the equation of the circle is
( x - 4 )² + ( y - 5 )² = 40
=> x² - 8x + 16 + y² - 10y + 25 - 40 = 0
=> x² + y² - 8x - 10y + 1 = 0
