Question 588139: This is a 2-part question:
1. The equation of a circle is (x-h)^2+(y-h)^2=r^2 where(h,k) is the center and r is the center of this circle. Find the area and center of this circle. x^2+y^2=36
2. Find the area of the square inscribed in the circle in the previous (the question above) problem.

1. The equation of a circle is (x-h)^2+(y-h)^2=r^2 where(h,k) is the center and r is the center of this circle. Find the area and center of this circle. x^2+y^2=36
---
Center: (0,0)
radius: sqrt(36) = 6
Area = (pi)r^2 = 36pi sq. units
----------------------------------------
2. Find the area of the square inscribed in the circle in the previous (the question above) problem.
----
Side of the square = the diameter of the circle = 12
Area of the square = side^2 = 144 sq. units
