Which of the following is the equation of a circle whose center is at the origin and whose radius is 4?

x²+y²=16

Step-by-step explanation:

the general equation for a circle is given as :

(x−h)²+(y−k)²=r²

where (h, k) is the coordinate of the center of the circle and r is the radius

in this case h=0, k=0 and r = 4

equation becomes

x²+y²=4²

or

x²+y²=16

Last option.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in Center-radius form is:

Where the center is at the point (h,k) and "r" is the radius.

If the center of this circle is at the origin, means that:

Since the radius is 4, then:

Now we need to substitute these values into the equation of the circle.

Simplifying the equation, we get:

This matches with the last option.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a right triangle with two congruent angles. so this is a isoceles right triangle or called a

45-45-90 triangle. This means that the legs are equal to each other so
