# (x -2)^2 + (y - 5 )^2 = 9#
Explanation:
The standard form for the equation of a circle is.
# (x - a )^2 + (y - b)^2 = r^2 # where (a , b ) is the centre and r , the radius.
This question gives all the necessary information needed to
complete the equation , centre = (2 , 5 ) and r = 3
hence equation is :
#(x - 2)^2 + (y - 5 )^2 = 9#
