HELP!!
The center of a circle is at (5, 12) and it has a radius of 16. What is the equation of the circle?

(x + 5)2 + (y 12)2 = 256

(x + 5)2 + (y 12)2 = 4

(x 5)2 + (y + 12)2 = 256

(x 5)2 + (y + 12)2 = 4

you know what's the equation for the circle?

anonymous · Answer

No i dont know anything pls help me with this question

anonymous · Answer

the equation for a circle is (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2

anonymous · Answer

so would it be the third one?

zale101 · Answer

(x-a)2 + (y-b)2 = r^2
Josh already motioned it,

anonymous · Answer

I think they are all wrong because if you plug in those numbers it will actually be -a and -b

anonymous · Answer

its one of them because it multiple chocie

anonymous · Answer

mm are you sure that in the question theres a negative?
