Solution

Let the required equation of the circle be

\[x^2 + y^2 + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0\]  ...(1)
It is given that the circle passes through (3, 7), (5, 5).
∴ \[58 + 6g + 14f + c = 0\] ...(2)
\[50 + 10g + 10f + c = 0\] ...(3)
The centre lies on the line x − 4y = 1.
∴\[- g + 4f - 1 = 0\]  ...(4)
Solving (2), (3) and (4):
\[g = 3, f = 1, c = - 90\]
Hence, the required equation of the circle is
\[x^2 + y^2 + 6x + 2y - 90 = 0\]
