Answer

Equation of this circle is

(x - 3)² + (y - 2)² = 4

Step-by-step explanation

The equation of a circle with center (a, b) and radius r, is given as

(x - a)² + (y - b)² = r²

So, for the circle shown on the graph attached,

Center = (3, 2)

Radius = distance from the center of the circle to any point on the circumference of the circle = r = 2

So, for this question,

a = 3

b = 2

r = 2

(x - a)² + (y - b)² = r²

Equation of the circle is thus

(x - 3)² + (y - 2)² = 2²

(x - 3)² + (y - 2)² = 4

Hope this Helps!!!
