Answer:
(x - 5)² + (y - 5)² = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a circle in standard form is
(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²
where (h, k) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius
Here (h, k ) = (5, 5) , then
(x - 5)² + (y - 5)² = r²
r is the distance from the centre to a point on the circle
Calculate r using the distance formula
r = [tex]\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2 }[/tex]
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (5, 5) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (8, 8)
r = [tex]\sqrt{(8-5)^2+(8-5)^2}[/tex]
= [tex]\sqrt{3^2+3^2}[/tex]
= [tex]\sqrt{9+9}[/tex]
= [tex]\sqrt{18}[/tex] ⇒ r² = ([tex]\sqrt{18}[/tex] )² = 18
Then
(x - 5)² + (y - 5)² = 18 ← equation of circle
