Answer:

Please refer to attached image for the graph of required circle.

Explanation:

The center and radius equation of a circle is :


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

Where the co-ordinates
(x,y) from where the circle passes.


(h,k) is the co-ordinate of circle's center represented by O.


r is the radius of circle.

Here, we are given that center of circle is at
(4,4).

So,
h = 4\ and\ k = 4.

and
r = 3

Hence, the equation (1) can be represented as :


\Rightarrow \left(x-4\right)^(2)+\left(y-4\right)^(2)=3^(2)\\\Rightarrow \left(x-4\right)^(2)+\left(y-4\right)^(2)=9

Please refer to the image attached in the answer area for the graph of above equation of circle.

Center of circle is represented by O which is the co-ordinate (4,4).

(7,4) is another point on circle.

The radius of circle is also shown in the graph image attached.
