Question

Write the equation of the circle in standard form with the center located at

(-2, 5) and radius of 3.

Answer 1

(x+2)^2 + (y-5)^2 = 9

Explanation:

The equation of a circle is given by

(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2 where (h,k) is the center and r is the radius

(x- -2)^2 + (y-5)^2 = 3^2

(x+2)^2 + (y-5)^2 = 9
