What is the general form of the equation of the given circle with center a(-3,12) and the radius is 5?

We solve this problem implementing the principle of the general form of the circle equation.

The general form of the circle equation is

Given that

Option A

The standard form of the circle equation, in other words the center-radius form, is

So, we get the standard form of the circle equation.

Expand the equation, implement the square of the binomial pattern.

Rearrange the equation.

We get the general form of the equation of the given circle.

Option B

The relationship between the general form and the standard form.

A(-3, 12) → (h, k) and r = 5

Once more, we get the general form of the equation of the given circle.
