### Instruction: help me answer this question Let us consider the equation of the required circle be (x – h)2 + (y – k)2 = r2. Find the equation of the circle., think step by step
### Assistant: We know that the radius of the circle is 5 and its centre lies on the x-axis, so k = 0 and r = 5. , The answer is The equation of the circle is (x – h)2 + y2 = 25.
