Answer:


(x - 5)^2 + (y + 2)^2 = 5

Explanation:

The equation of a circle with a center at (h, k) and radius r is given by:


\bold{(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2}

In this case, the center is at (5, -2) and the point that the circle passes through is (4, 0).

The distance between the center and the point is:


√((5 - 4)^2 + ((-2) - 0)^2) = √(1 + 4) = √(5)

Therefore, the equation of the circle is:


(x - 5)^2 + (y + 2)^2 = √(5)^2

Simplifying the equation, we get:


\bold{(x - 5)^2 + (y + 2)^2 = 5} is a required equation
