The general equation of 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

x² + y² -2x - 8y = 8

x² - 2x + y² - 8y = 8

(x² - 2x + ) + (y² -8y + ) = 8

Add square of half of the coefficient of x in the first paenthesis and the half of the square of the coefficient of y in the second parenthesis

Then add the two squaes at the right-hand side of the equation

(x² -2x +1 ) + (y² -8y + 16 ) = 8 + 1+ 16

(x-1)² + (y-4)² = 25

comparing this with the general equation

Center is ( 1, 4)

Radius is 5
