Find the standard form of the equation of the circle having the following properties.
Center at (-7,-6)
Tangent to x-axis
Standard form pf the equation is?
***
Standard form of equation for a circle: (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2,(h,k)=coordinates of center.
radius=6 (distance from tangent to center)
equation for given circle:
(x+7)^2+(y+6)^2=6^2
(x+7)^2+(y+6)^2=36
