Let P be the point on the parabola, , which is at a minimum distance from the center C of the circle,
. Then, the equation of the circle, passing through C and having its center at P is
Centre of circle is
Let the coordinates of point P be
Now, let
Let
For minimum,
Thus, coordinate of point P are
Hence, the required equation of circle is
