Question

Enter the equation of the circle described below.
Center (0,4), radius V3

Answer 1

(x)^2 + (y - 4)^2 = 3

(it could also be (x - 0)^2 + (y - 4)^2 = 3 but you can drop the zero by the x and just have it like: (x)^2 + (y - 4)^2 = 3)

Answer 2

The equation is:

`(x - 0)^2 + (y - 4)^2 = 3`

Explanation:

The equation of a circle:

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

(where
`(h, k)` represents the center and
`r` the radius).

-Use the given center and radius for the equation of a circle:

`(x - 0)^2 + (y - 4)^2 = √(3) ^2`

After, you have the equation of a circle written, simplify the radius by the exponent
`2`:

`(x - 0)^2 + (y - 4)^2 = 3`

So now, you have found the equation of a circle.
