Detailed Solution

The given circle is x2-y2-6x+12y+15=0

Equation of any circle, concentric with the above circle is x2+y2-6x+12y+k=0

The area of the given circle is 

      A=πr2 =π9+36-15 =30π

SInce, the area of the required circle is double of its area, hence the area of the required circle is 60π

Hence, 

     60π=π9+36-k45-k=60k=-15

Therefore, the equation of  the required circle is x2+y2-6x+12y-15=0

(or)

x2+ye-6x+12y+15=0 c=(3, -6) r=9+36-15 r=30 9+36-c πR2=2π(30)     R2=60 By verification circle is x2+y2-6x+12y-15=0
