Step-by-step explanation

For the first question

We are asked to write the equation of the circle given that


\begin{gathered} center:(13,-13) \\ Radius:4 \end{gathered}

The equation of a circle is of the form


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

In our case


\begin{gathered} a=13 \\ b=-13 \\ r=4 \end{gathered}

Substituting the values


(x-13)^2+(y+13)^2=4^2

For the second question

Given that


(18,-13)\text{ and \lparen4,-3\rparen}

We will have to get the midpoints (center) first


(18+4)/(2),(-13-3)/(2)=(22)/(2),(-16)/(2)=(11,-8)

Next, we will find the radius

Using the points (4,-3) and (11,-8)
