Question

Find the equation of the circle with center (4, 4)
and radius of 7.
A (x-4)+(y+4)*= 49
B (x– 4) +(y - 4) = 49
C (x+4)² – (y + 4) = 7
D (x+4)*+(y+4)2=7

Answer 1

general equation of a circle is (x+a)^2 + (y+b)^2 = radius ^2
a and b are the centre and you put in the inverse so as x=-4, a=-4. same for b as the y-coordinate is positive, it becomes negative
the last part is the radius of the circles squared so just 7^2 = 49 !
