Question
The sides of a square are x = 6, x = 9, y = 3 and y = 6. Find the equation of a circle drawn on the diagonal of the square as its diameter.
Solution
According to the question:
Sides of the square are x = 6, x = 9, y = 3 and y = 6.
The vertices of the square are (6, 6), (9, 6), (9, 3) and (6, 3).
And, the vertices of two diagonals are (6, 6), (9, 3) and (9, 6), (6, 3).
Hence, the equation of the circle is \[\left( x - 6 \right)\left( x - 9 \right) + \left( y - 6 \right)\left( y - 3 \right)\] or
