we know that the 8 represent the squared radius of the circle so to get the radius we should take the square root of 8
the answer is √8 = 2√2

Answer:
2√(2)

Explanation:

The general form of equation of a circle is given by :-


(x-a)^2+(y-b)^2=r^2 , where r is radius and (a,b) is the center of the circle.

The given equation of circle:
(x - 3)^2 + (y - 5)^2 = 8


\Rightarrow\ r^2=8

Taking square root on both sides, we get


\Rightarrow\ r=√(8)=2√(2)

Hence, the length of the radius for this circle=
2√(2)
