Question

PLEASE MATH HELP WILL GIVE RBAINLIEST!!

The center of a circle is at (–10, 6) and it has a radius of 4. What is the equation of the circle?

Question 9 options:

(x – 10)2 + (y + 6)2 = 2


(x – 10)2 + (y + 6)2 = 16


(x + 10)2 + (y – 6)2 = 2


(x + 10)2 + (y – 6)2 = 16

Answer 1

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
General equation of a circle
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(x - a)² + (y - b)² = r² where (a, b) is the centre of the circle and r the radius

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Equation of the circle
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Point (-10, 6) and radius 4

(x -(-10))² + (y - 6)² = 4²

(x + 10)² + (y - 6)² = 16

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: Equation of the circle: (x + 10)² + (y - 6)² = 16 (Answer B)
