Answer :

Answer:

( x - 14)^2 + ( y - 9)^2 = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the circle with a center and a point

( x - a) ^2 + ( y - b) ^2 = r^2

( 14 , 9) - center-( a, b)

a = 14

b = 9

( 16 , 12) - point - ( x, y)

x = 16

y = 12

Step 1: substitute the center into the equation

( x - 14)^2 + ( y - 9)^2 = r^2

Step 2: substitute the point into the equation

( x - 14)^2 +( y - 9)^2 = r^2

( 16 - 14)^2 + ( 12 - 9)^2 = r^2

2^2 + 3^2 = r^2

4 + 9 = r^2

13 = r^2

Step 3: subs the radius into the equation

( x - 14)^2 + ( y - 9)^2 = r^2

( x - 14)^2 + (y - 9)^2 = 13

Therefore, the equation of the circle is

( x - 14)^2 + ( y - 9)^2 = 13
