The equation of a circle is (x-2) squared + (y-6) squared = 64. What is the center and radius of the circle.

The center (2,6) and the radius is 8

Step-by-step explanation:

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

where (h, k) is the center of the circle and r is the radius

We have

(x-2) ^2 + (y-6) ^2 = 64

(x-2) ^2 + (y-6) ^2 = 8^2

The center (2,6) and the radius is 8
