Start with the general equation of a circle.


Plug in and (since the center is the point (h,k) ).


Plug in (this is the radius).


Square to get (this is the radius).


Simplify.


Subtract 9 from both sides.


FOIL and expand.


Combine like terms.


Rearrange the terms to fit the form .


The last equation is in standard form. Here we can see that D = 8, E = 12, and F = 43.
