You can  put this solution on YOUR website! Write in center-radius form. Give the center and radius. Hint: Use completing the square. 
x^2+ y^2-10x-6y+ 25=0 
** 
Standard form of equation for a circle: (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2, (h,k) being the (x,y) coordinates of the center and r=radius 
.. 
complete the squares 
(x^2-10x+25)+(y^2-6y+9)=-25+25+9=9 
equation: 
(x-5)^2+(y-3)^2=9 
Center: (5/2) 
Radius=√9=3
