Answer:
(x + 3)^2 + (y + 1)^2 = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation of a circle with center (h, k) and radius, r.
(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2
The center is (-3, -1), so h = 1, and k = 2.
(x - (-3))^2 + (y - (-1))^2 = r^2
(x + 3)^2 + (y + 1)^2 = r^2
Now we substitute x and y with the values of x and y from the given point, and we solve for r^2.
(1 + 3)^2 + (2 + 1)^2 = r^2
4^2 + 3^2 = r^2
16 + 9 = r^2
r^2 = 25
Now that we know r^2, we substitute it into the equation above.
(x + 3)^2 + (y + 1)^2 = 25
Answer:
The correct answer is,
(x + 3)² + (y +1)² = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that, What is the equation of a circle with center (-3,-1) that contains the point (1,2)
Formula;-
Equation of the circle passing through the point ( x₁,y₁) with radius r is given by,
(x - x₁)² + (y - y₁)² = r²
To find the radius of circle
r =√[ (1 --3)² + (2 --1)²]
=√(4² + 3²)
= √(16 + 9)
=√25 = 5
To find the equation of the circle
(x₁, x₁) = (-3, -1) and r = 5
(x - x₁)² + (y - y₁)² = r²
(x - -3)² + (y - -1)² = 5²
(x + 3)² + (y +1)² = 25
