Find the equation of the circle.


Sagot :

Answer:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find an equation of a circle we need the length of the radius and the coordinates of the centre.

The general form is (x - j)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2    where (j, k) is the centre and r is the radius.

So our equation is:

(x - 1)^2 + (y - 3)^2 = (√5)^2

(x - 1)^2 + (y - 3)^2 =  5.
