You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The general equation for a circle centered at (h,k) with a radius R is:
%28x-h%29%5E2%2B%28y-k%29%5E2=R%5E2
Use the center and point to find the radius,
%28-1-3%29%5E2%2B%281%2B2%29%5E2=R%5E2
R%5E2=16%2B9
R%5E2=25
.

.
%28x-3%29%5E2%2B%28y%2B2%29%5E2=25

x%5E2-6x%2B9%2By%5E2%2B2y%2B4=25
x%5E2-6x%2By%5E2%2B2y-12=0
Not sure which form you wanted so there's both of them.
