we calculate the radius, i.e. the distance between two points


\begin{gathered} r=\sqrt[]{(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2} \\ r=\sqrt[]{(-1-2)^2+(-8-(-3))^2} \\ r=\sqrt[]{(-3)^2+(-8+3)^2} \\ r=\sqrt[]{(-3)^2+(-5)^2} \\ r=\sqrt[]{9+25} \\ r=\sqrt[]{34} \end{gathered}

then, we have that the equation of the circle is


\begin{gathered} (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2 \\ \text{where} \\ h=2 \\ k=-3 \\ r^2=(\sqrt[]{34})^2=34 \end{gathered}

therefore the equation is


\begin{gathered} (x-2)^2+(y-(-3))^2=34 \\ (x-2)^2+(y+3)^2=34 \end{gathered}
