Given:

The equation of a circle is:


(x-3)^2+y^2=32

To find:

Center and the circumference of the circle.

Solution:

The standard form of a circle is:


(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2 ...(i)

Where, (h,k) is center and r is the radius.

We have,


(x-3)^2+y^2=32 ...(ii)

On comparing (i) and (ii), we get


h=3,y=0,r=√(32)

So, the center of the circle is (3,0) and the radius of the circle is
√(32).

Now, the circumference of the circle is:


C=2\pi r


C=2(3.14)(√(32))


C=35.525045


C\approx 35.5

Therefore, the circumference of the circle is about 35.5 units.
