Answer:

The center of the circle is point: C=(1,5).

The radius of the circle is r=3.

Explanation:

x² + y² -2x - 10y + 17 = 0

Find the center and radius of this circle

We have the equation

x² + y² -2x - 10y + 17 = 0

We collect like terms

x² - 2x + y² - 10y = -17

x² - 2x + (-2/2)² + y² - 10y + (-10/2)² = -17 + (-2/2)² + (-10/2)²

The center of the circle is point: C=(1,5).

The radius of the circle is r=3.
