What is the standard form of an equation of a circle?
(x-10)^2+(y-7)^2=12.25
(x- h)^2+(y- k)^2= r^2 In this form, ( h, k) is the center of the circle and r is its radius. We are told that the center of the circle is ( 10, 7) and its radius is 3.5. This information is enough to write the equation. (x- 10)^2+(y- 7)^2= 3.5^2 ⇕ (x-10)^2+(y-7)^2=12.25
