Write an equation of the circle that is tangent to the line x=2 and has its center at (-4, 7).

Hint: the distance from the center (-4,7) and the tangent line is equal to the radius

Okay so if the radius is 6 from the center to the edge of the circle, would that make the equation based off of (x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 =r^2?
