Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
step one :
Given that the equation of the circle is described as
[tex]x^2 + y^2 = 64[/tex]
To correctly identify the center of the circle we have to place the equation in the standard form.
the standard equation for a circle is
[tex](x-h)^2+(x-k)^2= r^2[/tex]
step two :
let us re-write the given equation so that we can compare it with the general equation of circle
[tex](x-0)^2+(x-0)^2= 8^2[/tex]
step three:
From this above equation in step two we can see that the circle has a radius of 8
