Answer

Center of the circle is $\left( 0,0 \right)$ and radius is $r=\sqrt{20}$

Work Step by Step

Standard equation of the circle is: ${{\left( x-h \right)}^{2}}+{{\left( y-k \right)}^{2}}={{r}^{2}}$ (equation -1) And equation of the circle is ${{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}=20$ (equation - 2) Now compare both the equations. $\begin{align} & {{\left( x-0 \right)}^{2}}+{{\left( y-0 \right)}^{2}}=20 \\ & {{\left( x-0 \right)}^{2}}+{{\left( y-0 \right)}^{2}}=\sqrt{20} \\ \end{align}$ Center coordinate of the circle is $\left( h=0,k=0 \right)$. And radius of the circle is $r=\sqrt{20}$. To graph, we plot the points $\left( 0,4.472 \right)$, $\left( 0,-4.472 \right)$, $\left( -4.472,0 \right)$, and $\left( 4.472,0 \right)$ which are, respectively, $\sqrt{20}$ units above, below, left and right of $\left( 0,0 \right)$
