Answer :

ANSWER

D. (x - 2)² + (y - 6)² = 16

EXPLANATION

The equation of a circle in standard form is,

[tex](x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2[/tex]

Where r is the radius and (h, k) is the center of the circle.

In this case, we have a circle with center at (2, 6) and radius of 4, so the equation is,

[tex]\begin{gathered} (x-2)^2+(y-6)^2=4^2 \\ \\ (x-2)^2+(y-6)^2=16 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, the equation of the circle is (x - 2)² + (y - 6)² = 16.
