Write the equation of a circle with center (h,k) and radius r.

• x^2 + y^2  = r^2
• (x + h)^2 +  (y + h)^2 = r^2
• (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2
• (x - h)^2 - (h - k)^2 = r

The point (-5,6) is on a circle with center (-1,3) write the equation of the circle (hint: remember distance between any point on the circle and the center is the radius length!)

• (x+1)² + (y-3)²= 4000

• (x+5)² + (y-0)²= 25

• (x+1)² + (y-3)²= 25

• (x-1)² + (y+3)²= 25
