Answer:


(x-9)^(2)+(y+4)^(2)=81

Explanation:

we know that

The equation of a circle in standard form is equal to


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

where

(h,k) is the center

r is the radius

In this problem we have


(h,k)=(9,-4)


r=9\ units

substitute


(x-9)^(2)+(y+4)^(2)=9^(2)


(x-9)^(2)+(y+4)^(2)=81 ----> equation of the circle in standard form
