Pre-Calculus

Circle Center Formula: (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

• (h, k) is center
• r is radius

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify

(h, k) = (8, 10)

r = 6

Step 2: Find Equation

1. Substitute in variables [Center Circle Formula]:                                             (x - 8)² + (y - 10)² = 6²
2. Evaluate exponents:                                                                                         (x - 8)² + (y - 10)² = 36
