Answer:

(x - 2)² + (y - 6)² = 49

Explanation:

Equation of a circle formula: (x - a)² + (y - b)² = r²

where (a, b) is the center of the circle and r is the radius

Given, center = (2, 6) and radius = 7

Substitute this information in the equation of a circle formula.

⇒ Equation of the circle: (x - 2)² + (y - 6)² = 49
