Answer:

The correct answer option is d.
x^2+y^2-8x+4y-80=0

Explanation:

We are given the center of the circle at (4, -2) with a radius of 10 units and we are to find the equation of the circle with the help of this.

We know the standard form of the equation of a circle is:


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

So putting in the values of the coordinates of the center
(h, k) and radius.


(x-4)^2+(y+2)^2=10^2

Expanding the formulas to get:


(x^2+8x+16)+(y^2+4y+4)=100

Adding the like terms together to get:


x^2-8x+y^2+4y+16+4-100=0


x^2+y^2-8x+4y-80=0
