Answer:
(x + 3)² + (y - 4)² = 32
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we are given the coordinates of the centre and a point on the circle, we can use distance formula to find the radius.
r = √((1 - (-3))² + (8 - 4)²)
r = √(16 + 16)
r = √32
Now, formula for equation of a circle with centre (h, k) is;
(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²
Our centre is (-3, 4) with r = √32
Thus;
(x - (-3))² + (y - 4)² = (√32)²
(x + 3)² + (y - 4)² = 32
