x² + y² - 10x + 6y + 9 = 0
Since the circle cuts the x-axis at point A and point B.
Sub y = 0 into the equation, we get:
x² - 10x + 9 = 0
(x - 9)(x - 1) = 0
x = 1 or 9
So, the coordinates of A and B are (1,0) and (9,0).
Since the circle touches the y-axis at point C.
Sub x = 0 into the equation, we get:
y² + 6y + 9 = 0
(y + 3)² = 0
y = -3
So, the coordinates of C is (0,-3).
So, area of ΔABC
= 1/2 X length of AB X magnitude of y-coordinate of C
= 1/2 X (9-1) X 3
= 12 sq. units.
