Detailed Solution

 Given circle sx2+y22x+4y8=0.....(1)
 Given line x+y3=0.....(2)
 Now equation of circla Passing  through (1) & (2) is S+λL=0
x2+y22x+4y8+λ(x+y3)=0(3)x2+y22x+4y8+λx+λy3λ=0x2+y2+(λ2)x+(λ+4)y83λ=0.
 where g=λ22,f=λ+42,c=83λ
 centre =2λ2,λ42
since AB¯ is diameter then centre lies on (2)  
2λ2+λ423=02λλ462=02λ8=02λ=8λ=4
 from (3) Equation of circle is 
x2+y22x+4y84(x+y3)=0x2+y22x+4y84x4y+12=0.x2+y26x+4=0.
