If the radius of the circle will be 5, then the diameter of the circle is 10 m. Then the correct option is C.

A circle can be characterized by its center's location and its radius's length.

Let the center of the considered circle be at the (h,k) coordinate.

Let the radius of the circle be 'r' units.

Then, the equation of that circle would be:

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

Marisha plots her flower garden on a computer.

She determines that the circle that defines the part of the garden that gets watered by the sprinkler is (x − 8)² + (y + 10)² = 25.

Then the equation can be written as

(x − 8)² + (y + 10)² = 5²

The radius of the circle will be 5

Then the diameter of the circle is given as

d = 2r

d = 2 x 5

d = 10 m
