Answer:

Option D is the correct answer


\orange {\bold {{x}^(2) + {y}^(2) = {4}^(2)}}

Explanation:

Since, circle is centered at the origin, and the length of its radius is 4. So, the equation of the circle will be:


{(x - 0)}^(2) + {(y - 0)}^(2) = {4}^(2) \\ \\\purple {\bold {{x}^(2) + {y}^(2) = {4}^(2)}}

The equation of the circle with center at the origin and radius 4 is
x^2 + y^2 = 16.

The equation of a circle with center
(h, k) radius r is given by
(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2

In this case, the circle is centered at the origin
(h=0, k=0) adius is 4.


x^2 + y^2 = 4^(2)


x^2 + y^2 = 16.

Therefore, the equation of the circle is
x^2 + y^2 = 16.
