Question

Write the equation of the circle centered at ( 4 , − 5 ) with radius 18.

Answer 1

Answer:

(x-4)^2 + (y+5)^2 = 324

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle is given by the equation (x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2, where (h,k) is the center point of the circle.

Therefore, since the center point of the circle and the radius is given, we can just plug the numbers into the formula:

(x-4)^2 + (y+5)^2 = 18^2

(x-4)^2 + (y+5)^2 = 324
