left parenthesis x minus 8 right parenthesis squared plus left parenthesis y minus 2 right parenthesis squared equals 4

(x−2)2+(y−8)2=2

Answer 1

Use distance from (x,y) to center (−8,−2): sqrt[(x+8)^2+(y+2)^2]=2. Square both sides to get

(x+8)^2+(y+2)^2=4.

So the correct choice is (x+8)^2+(y+2)^2=4.
