Question
**Graphing a Circle from an Equation**

**Objective:** Graph the circle with the equation \((x + 4)^2 + (y - 5)^2 = 9\).

**Equation Analysis:**
This equation is in the standard form \((x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2\), where \((h, k)\) is the center of the circle and \(r\) is the radius.

- **Center (h, k):** \((-4, 5)\)
- **Radius (r):** \(3\) (since the equation equals \(9\) and \(r^2 = 9\))

**Graph Details:**

1. **Axes:**
   - The graph has a standard Cartesian coordinate system with both x and y axes ranging from \(-10\) to \(10\).

2. **Center Point:**
   - The point labeled \(A\) at \((-4, 5)\) marks the center of the circle.

3. **Instructions:**
   - To graph the circle, use the center at \((-4, 5)\). From this center, measure a distance of \(3\) units in all directions (up, down, left, right) to plot points on the circle's circumference.

This visualization helps in understanding how the equation of a circle translates to its graphical representation on a coordinate plane.
