To solve the equation and find the radius, we need to rewrite it in the form of a circle equation, which is (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r², where (h, k) represents the center of the circle and r represents the radius.

Given equation: x² + y² + 2x - 10y + 8 = 8y - 46

To rewrite the equation in the form (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r², we complete the square for both the x and y terms:


\sf\:(x^2 + 2x) + (y^2 + 10y) = 8y - 46 - 8 \\

Completing the square for x terms:


\sf\:x^2 + 2x = (x + 1)^2 - 1 \\

Completing the square for y terms:


\sf\:y^2 + 10y = (y + 5)^2 - 25 \\

Substituting the completed square forms into the equation:


\sf\:(x + 1)^2 - 1 + (y + 5)^2 - 25 + 8 = 8y - 46 - 8 \\

Simplifying the equation:


\sf\:(x + 1)^2 + (y + 5)^2 = 8y - 46 - 8 + 1 + 25 - 8 \\


\sf\:(x + 1)^2 + (y + 5)^2 = 8y - 36 \\

Now we can see that the equation is in the form of (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r², where h = -1, k = -5, and r² = 8y - 36. Therefore, the radius is
\sf\:√(8y - 36) \\.
