p and q are the coordinates of the center of circle

cwrw238 · Answer

by observation they are p =3 and q = 2
p+q = 5

cwrw238 · Answer

the radius of circle = sqrt25 = 5  which helps to find center

ok i was wondering how did u figure that out ..yur a teacher!!! @cwrw238

cwrw238 · Answer

general form of equation of circle  is

(x-a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = r^2

apologies if u knew this already!
