Solution
Let, the circle be g, f, c. It passes through (2, 0). ∴ 4 + 4g + c = 0 ..(1) Since it makes an intercept 5 on x-axis hence it must pass through (5 + 2, 0) i.e. (7, 0). ∴ 49 + 14g + c = 0. .(2) Solving, 2g = -9, c = 14 There is no other relation to give the value of f. ∴x2+y2−9x+2fr+14=0 where 2f is - ive as centre lies in 1st quadrant;
