Question

The equation of a circle is (x-2) squared + (y-6) squared =64. What is the center and radius of the circle.

Answer 1

The center (2,6) and the radius is 8

Explanation:

The equation of a circle is (x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 =r^2

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

We have

(x-2)^2 + (y-6)^2 =64

(x-2)^2 + (y-6)^2 =8^2

The center (2,6) and the radius is 8
