Question

The equation of the circle below is x2 + y2 = 5. TRUE OR FALSE?

Answer 1

FALSE

The standard form of the equation of a circle is

$(x - a) {}^{2} + (y - b) {}^{2} = r {}^{2}$

With (a, b) representing the centre and r representing the radius.

The radius of the circle in the attachment is 5, and therefore the circle has the following equation.

${x}^{2} + y {}^{2} = 25$
