\quad \huge \quad \quad \boxed{ \tt \:Answer }


\qquad \tt \rightarrow \: x² + y² = 64

\large \tt Solution \: :

Standard equation of circle is :


\qquad \tt \rightarrow \: (x - h) {}^(2) + (y - k) {}^(2) = {r}^(2)


  • \textsf{h = x - coordinate of centre of circle}


  • \textsf{k = y - coordinate of centre of circle}


  • \textsf{r = radius= 8}

Since the circle is centered at origin, h = k = 0


\qquad \tt \rightarrow \: (x - 0) {}^(2) + (y - 0) {}^(2) = {8}^(2)


\qquad \tt \rightarrow \: {x}^(2) + {y}^(2) = 64
