Detailed Solution

 Given circles are S=x2+y2+3x+2y+1=0
S′′=x2+y2x+6y+53=0S′′=x2+y2+5x8y+15=0
Equation of radical axis of S=0,S'=0 is SS'=0
4x4y52=0xy13=0 ...(1)
 Equation of radical axis of S=0,S′′=0 is 
S'S'''=02x+10y14=0x5y+7=0 ...(2)
(1)-(2)(-)4y20=0y=5
Put y = 5 in (2) x = 5y - 7
= 5(5) - 7 = 25 - 7 = 18
 radical centre of the given circles is (18,5)
Length of the tangent from R.C. (18, 5) to  S' = 0  is S11'=182+52+3(18)+2(5)+1
=324+25+54+10+1=414
Required circle cuts given circles orthogonally.
 Centre of the required circle is R.C. =(18,5)
 Radius of the required circle r=s"'=414
Equation of the required circle is xx12+yy12=r2
(x18)2+(y5)2=414x236x+324+y210y+25414=0x2+y236x10y65=0.
