Ify+3x=0is the equation of a chord of the circlex2+y2-30x=0, then the equation of the circle with this chord as diameter is :

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:



To find point of intersection of given chord y=-3x with the given circle x2+y2-30x=0 eliminate y from two equations
Point of intersection  
x2+9x2-30x=0
10x x-3=0
x=0 or x=3
Therefore, y = 0 and y =-9 are the corresponding ordinates.
Point of intersection (0, 0), (3, -9)
Diametric form of equation of circle,
x x-3+yy+9=0
x2+y2-3x+9y=0 .
