You can put this solution on YOUR website! The circle is tangent to y-axis, and the center is at (5, 3). Find the equation of a circle.
solution
tangent at y axis means circle is passing through y axis (0,3)
radius of circle =5
equation of circle
(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2
(x-5)^2+(y-3)^2=25
x^2-10x+25+y^2-6y+9=25
x^2+y^2-10x-6y+9=0
