the formula becomes %28x-h%29%5E2%2B%28y-k%29%5E2=r%5E2
where +h and k are the x and y coordinates of the center of the circle, and r is radius

if given center (1,3)=(h ,k) which means h=1 and k=3, and radius of r=2, than equation will be


%28x-1%29%5E2%2B%28y-3%29%5E2=2%5E2

%28x-1%29%5E2%2B%28y-3%29%5E2=4
