So you need to start with the standard form of a circle.
(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2 , where the center is at (h, k) with a radius of r
All points on the circle have a distance equal to the radius from the center of the circle. So you must use the center (1, 4) and the given point on the circle
(-2, 4) in order to find the radius. You can do this by using the distance formula r^2 = (x1 - x2)^2 + (y1 - y2)^2
r^2 = (1 - -2)^2 + (4 - 4)^2
r^2 = (3)^2 + (0)^2
r^2 = 9
The equation of a circle calls for r^2 so we do not need to find just r. Now we just substitute (h,k) and r^2 into the equation to get the standard form of the circle.
(x - 1)^2 + (y - 4)^2 = 9
