Find the standard form of the equation of the circle having the following properties.
Center at (-3,2)
Tangent to y-axis
Standard form of the equation is?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Since the center is at (-3,2) and the circle is tangent to y-axis,
it means that the radius of the circle is 3 units.


It is the only place in the solution, where you need to strain your mind.


The rest is automatic: the standard form equation of the circle is
