Write the standard equation of the circle with the given center that passes through the given point
Kitty [74]
Circle equation
(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2
Since radius isn't given use the center and point, with the distance formula, to find the radius.
D=sqrt((x2-x2)^2+)y2-y1)^2)
D=sqrt((1-0)^2+(2-6)^2
D=sqrt(1+16)
D=sqrt 17
radius = sqrt 17
(h, k) is the center and r is the radius
(x - 1)^2 + (y - 2)^2 = 17
