Question

Determine the equation of the circle graphed below.

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (x +1)^2 +(y -3)^2 = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle centered at (h, k) with radius r is ...

  (x -h)^2 +(y -k)^2 = r^2

The graphed circle is centered at (h, k) = (-1, 3), and has radius 2, so its equation is ...

  (x +1)^2 +(y -3)^2 = 4
