Answer: (x + 3)^2 + (y - 4)^2 = 49
Explanation:
The equation of a circle given the center and radius: (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2
Given: center (-3,4) ; h = -3 and k = 4
diameter = 14
To find the radius: divide the diameter by 2 = 14/2 = 7 = r
Center: (-3,4) and radius: 7
Equation of a circle: (x - h)^2 + (y - k) ^2 = r^2
Substitute h = -3, k = 4, r = 7
(x - (-3))^2 + (y - 4)^2 = 7^2
Answer:
Equation of the circle: (x + 3)^2 + (y - 4)^2 = 49
