Establish the equation of a circular object whose radius equals 6 centimetres and centre's coordinates are (3, 2).



Equation for a circle with radius r and centre at (a,b) is given by





Here, a = 3, b = 2, r = 6

Just substitute in the above formula to get the equation.







Expand the left hand side and simplify, to check which of the choices is correct.



Hope it is clear :)
