Answer:


{x}^(2) + {y}^(2) = 81

Explanation:

The general for for the equation of a circle is


{(x - a)}^(2) + {(y - b)}^(2) = {r}^(2)

Where a is the x coordinate of the centre, b is the y coordinate of the centre and r is the radius.

In your case, a=0, b=0, r=9

Substituting these values into the general form gives the answer.
