The general equation of a circle is:


(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2

where (h, k) is the center and r is the radius of the circle.

In this case, the center is the point (0,0), the origin, and the radius is 8. Substituting this information into the equation, we get:


\begin{gathered} (x-0)^2+(y-0)^2=8^2 \\ x^2+y^2=64 \end{gathered}
