Step-by-step explanation

The equation of a circle is given by


(x-a)^2+(y-b)^2=r^2

Where a and b are the centres of the circle

In our case we have


\begin{gathered} a=3 \\ b=-5 \end{gathered}

R is the radius of the circle

We have the diameter as 6

Then the radius will be 3

Also, the value of r =3

So we can obtain the equation


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


x^2-6x+9+y^2+10y+25=9

Simplifying further


x^2+y^2-6x+10y+25=0

The answer is

What is the equation of the circle in general form?x2+y2−6x+10y+22=0x squared plus-example-1
