Write the general equation for the circle that passes through the points: (1, 7) (8, 6) (7, -1)

i can't answer rn

but here's how to do it.

step-by-step explanation:

general equation of a circle is (y-a)^2 + (x-b)^2 = r^2.

place all the points in the equation one by one to make three equations with the variables (a,b and r).

now solve the equations to get value of the variables and put it in the equation to get the required circle equation.
