Question 79854: Here is my word problem, need to write an equation:
A lanscape architect wants to position a tree 3 meters east and 9 meters north of a stong marker in a garden. When the tree is full grown, its branches will be roughly circular with a diameter of about 4 meters. Write an equation representing the outside of the grown tree's branches relative to the stone.
I understand how to do equations with center points and endplate points, but I just don't see how to do this. Thanks

think of the marker as the origin (0,0) ... you need an equation for a circle of radius 2, centered at (3,9)
