Answer:

x² + y² = 100

Explanations:

The equation of a circle having a center (a, b) and radius, r, is given as:

(x - a)² + (y - b)² = r²

For a circle centered at the origin, the coordinates of the center are (0, 0)

That is, a = 0. b = 0

The equation of the circle therefore becomes:

(x - 0)² + (y - 0)² = r²

x² + y² = r²

the radius, r = 10

x² + y² = 10²

x² + y² = 100its
