Question

Write the equation of the given circle. center (1, -5) radius of 10

Answer 1

The circle equation is in the format (x – h)2 + (y – k)2= r2, with the center being at the point (h, k) and the radius being "r". 

Therefore (x – 1)2 + (y +5)2= 102
x2 + y2 + 1 - 2x + 25 + 10y = 100
x2 + y2 - 2x + 10y = 74
