The correct answer is: x2+y2-2x-4y-4=0

Given: the lines x+2y-5=0 and 2x-3y+4=0 lie along diameters of a circle of area 9π

We have πr2=9πr2=9

The intersection point of given lines will be center of the circle

2x+4y=10-(2x-3y=-4)7y=14y=2, x=1

So the equation of circle is x-12+y-22=9

x2+y2-2x-4y-4=0
