Write the equation of the circle in standard form that has the following:

Center (-5,7) and Radius = 4

Answers

Answered by GPT 3.5
The standard form of the equation of a circle is given by:

(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2,

where (h, k) represents the center of the circle and r represents the radius.

In this case, the center is (-5, 7) and the radius is 4. Plugging these values into the equation gives:

(x - (-5))^2 + (y - 7)^2 = 4^2

Simplifying:

(x + 5)^2 + (y - 7)^2 = 16

Therefore, the equation of the circle in standard form is:

(x + 5)^2 + (y - 7)^2 = 16.
