Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Standard equation of a circle is given by,
(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²
Here, (h, k) is the center of the circle.
From the graph given in the picture,
Center of the circle → (-1, 1)
Radius of the circle = 3 units
Therefore, standard equation of the circle will be,
(x + 1)² + (y - 1)² = 3²
(x + 1)² + (y - 1)² = 9
General equation of the circle is the expanded form of the standard equation.
x² + 2x + 1 + y² + 1 - 2y = 9
x² + y² + 2x - 2y + 2 = 9
x² + y² + 2x - 2y - 7 = 0
Therefore, general equation of the given circle is,
x² + y² + 2x - 2y - 7 = 0
