Explanation:
#"the equation of a circle in standard form is"#
#color(red)(bar(ul(|color(white)(2/2)color(black)((x-a)^2+(y-b)^2=r^2)color(white)(2/2)|)))#
#"where "(a,b)" are the coordinates of the centre and r"#
#"is the radius"#
#"here "(a,b)=(-2,5)" and "r=4#
#"substitute these values into the equation"#
#(x-(-2))^2+(y-5)^2=4^2#
#rArr(x=2)^2+(y-5)^2=16larrcolor(red)"equation of circle"#
