Write the equation of a circle that passes though the point (-8,2)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

There are infinitely many circles that can intersect a point.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0,0 is the origin

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, 0,0 is the origin.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Not sure how that affects anything.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think he means the center points is in the origin

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That would certainly be more specific.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

My mistake

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Just use the distance between two points (0,0) and (-8,2) the result is the radius

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and the formula is X^2 + y^2 = r^2 where r is the radius
