anonymous · Answer

x – 16)^{2} + (y + 9)^{2} = 4.

anonymous · Answer

U know you can just read this from the equation, right?

anonymous · Answer

(x - h)2 + (y - k)2 = r2

anonymous · Answer

i know that,but i was trying to fix the powers,thanks.

amistre64 · Answer

the powers are superfluous ....

anonymous · Answer

what ?

anonymous · Answer

$$\huge (x-\underbrace{h}_{Center})^2+(y-\underbrace{k}_{Center})^2=\underbrace{\boxed{r}^2}_{Radius }$$

amistre64 · Answer

im sure its in the dictionary

anonymous · Answer

okay im not talking to you right now,thanks.

amistre64 · Answer

lol, the powers are not important to determing the center from the equation is all
