Answer

$\{(0,-6),(6,0)\}$

Work Step by Step

$x^{2}+y^{2}=36$ Equation $(1)$ $x-y = 6 $ Equation $(2)$ From Equation $(2)$ $-y = 6-x $ $y = x- 6 $ Substituting $y = x- 6 $ in Equation $(1)$ $x^{2}+y^{2}=36$ $x^{2}+(x-6)^{2}=36$ Using $(a-b)^{2} = a^{2} - 2ab+b^{2}$ $x^{2}+x^{2} -12x + 36 =36$ $x^{2}+x^{2} -12x + 36 -36 =0$ $2x^{2} -12x =0$ $2x(x-6) =0$ $x = 0$ or $x = 6$ Substitute $ x$ values in Equation $(2)$ to get $y$, Let $x = 0$ $y = -6$ Let $x=6$ $y = 0$ $(0,-6)$ and $(6,0)$ satisfies both equations. So, the solution set is $\{(0,-6),(6,0)\}$
