By completing squares, we will see that the radius is 12 units and the center is (-8, 1).
The circle of center (x₁, y₁) and radius r is written as:
(x - x₁)² + (y - y₁)² = r²
Now we go to our equation:
x² + 16x + 64 + y² - 2y + 1 = 144
Now we need to complete squares:
(a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²
Then we can rewrite:
(x² + 2*8*x + 8*8) + (y² - 2y + 1) = 12²
(x + 8)² + (y - 1)² = 12²
So the center is the point (-8, 1) and the radius is 12 units.
