Let O BE THE  CENTRE OF THE REQUIRED CIRCLE

SINCE IT TOUCHES THE CENTRE OF THE CIRCLE ,THE PERPENDICULAR FROM THE CENTRE,IS THE RADIUS OF THE CIRCLE

LET A AND B BE THE FOOT OF THE PERPENDICULARS FROM THE CENTRE TO THE COORDINATE AXES RESPECTIVELY

ALSO GIVEN THAT,THE CIRCLE CUTS OFF AN INTERCEPTS OF 6 FROM THE Y-AXIS

LET CD BE THE CHORD  WHICH LIES ALONG Y-AXIS ,

CD=6 UNITS

THE LINE FROM THE CENTER BISECTS THE CHORD ,

SINCE OB BISECTS CD,WE HAVE ,BC=BD=CD/2

THEREFORE CB/2=6/2=3 UNITS

CONSIDER A RIGHT TRIANGLE,OCB

BY PYTHAGORAS  THEORUM

WE HAVE,

OC^2=4^2+3^2

OC^2=16+9

OC^2=25

OC=5UNITS

THUS RADIUS OF THE CIRCLE IS 5UNITS

THE COORDINATES OF CENTRE OF CIRCLE IS O[4,5],0{DASH}[-4,5]

THUS THE EQUATION OF A CIRCLE

[X-4]^2+[Y-5]^2=5^2

X^2+16-8X+Y^2+25-10Y=25

X^2+16-8X+Y^2-10Y=O

OR X^2+Y^2+8X-10Y+16=0

I HOPE THIS HELPS PLZ MARK IT AS BRAINLIEST..!
