Question

If the equation of a circle is (x + 5)2 + (y - 7)2 = 36, its center point is (5, 7) (-5, 7) (5, -7)

Answer 1

(-5,7) it’s always the opposite of what is being squared with x and y

Answer 2

center ( -5 , 7).

Explanation:

Given : If the equation of a circle is (x + 5)² + (y - 7)² = 36.

To find : Find its center .

Solution : We have given (x + 5)² + (y - 7)² = 36.

Standard equation of circle : (x – h)² + (y – k)² = r².

Where, (h ,k) = center , r = radius .

On comparing (x + 5)² + (y - 7)² = 36.

h = -5 , k = 7

So, the center ( -5 , 7).

Therefore, center ( -5 , 7).
