x^2 +(y-3)^2=17 is the standard form of equation of circle

Solution:

Given that a circle has center (0, 3) and passes through point (-4, 4)

We have to find the standard form of equation of circle

The standard form of equation of circle is given as:


(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2 --------- eqn 1

Where the center being at the point (h, k) and the radius being "r"

Here center = (h, k) = (0, 3)

Plug in (h, k) = (0, 3) and (x, y) = (-4, 4) in above equation


(-4-0)^2+(4-3)^2=r^2\\\\16+1 = r^2\\\\r^2 = 17

Now plug in
r^2=17 and (h, k) = (0, 3) in eqn 1


(x-0)^2+(y-3)^2=17\\\\x^2 +(y-3)^2=17

Thus the standard form of equation is found
