Question

Find the coordinates of the center of the given circle. (x - 5)2 + (y + 3)2 = 25

Answer 1

The center is (5,-3) the radius of 25 is 5

Answer 2

The center is at (5, -3) and the radius is 5

Explanation:

The equation for a circle is given by

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

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

(x - 5)2 + (y + 3)2 = 25

Rewriting the equation

(x - 5)2 + (y - -3)2 = 5^2

The center is at (5, -3) and the radius is 5
