Write the equation of the circle with the given center and radius.
-center $( 0,2 )$, radius $\sqrt { 15 }$
A) $( x + 2 ) ^ { 2 } + y ^ { 2 } = 225$
B) $( x - 2 ) ^ { 2 } + y ^ { 2 } = 225$
C) $x ^ { 2 } + ( y - 2 ) ^ { 2 } = 15$
D) $x ^ { 2 } + ( y + 2 ) ^ { 2 } = 15$

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The equation of a circle with center $(h, k)$ and radius $r$ is $(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2$. For center $(0, 2)$ and radius $\sqrt{15}$, the equation is $x^2 + (y - 2)^2 = 15$.
