$(0, 1)$ , $(1, 0)$

Step 1

Find the radius $r$ for the circle. The radius is any line segment from the center of the circle to any point on its circumference. In this case, $r$ is the distance between $(0, 1)$ and $(1, 0)$ .

Step 1.1

Use the distance formula to determine the distance between the two points.

$Distance = \sqrt{{(x_{2} - x_{1})}^{2} + {(y_{2} - y_{1})}^{2}}$

Step 1.2

Substitute the actual values of the points into the distance formula.

$r = \sqrt{{(1 - 0)}^{2} + {(0 - 1)}^{2}}$

Step 1.3

Step 1.3.1

Subtract $0$ from $1$ .

$r = \sqrt{1^{2} + {(0 - 1)}^{2}}$

Step 1.3.2

One to any power is one.

$r = \sqrt{1 + {(0 - 1)}^{2}}$

Step 1.3.3

Subtract $1$ from $0$ .

$r = \sqrt{1 + {(- 1)}^{2}}$

Step 1.3.4

Raise $- 1$ to the power of $2$ .

$r = \sqrt{1 + 1}$

Step 1.3.5

Add $1$ and $1$ .

$r = \sqrt{2}$

Step 2

${(x - h)}^{2} + {(y - k)}^{2} = r^{2}$ is the equation form for a circle with $r$ radius and $(h, k)$ as the center point. In this case, $r = \sqrt{2}$ and the center point is $(0, 1)$ . The equation for the circle is ${(x - (0))}^{2} + {(y - (1))}^{2} = {(\sqrt{2})}^{2}$ .

${(x - (0))}^{2} + {(y - (1))}^{2} = {(\sqrt{2})}^{2}$

Step 3

The circle equation is ${(x - 0)}^{2} + {(y - 1)}^{2} = 2$ .

${(x - 0)}^{2} + {(y - 1)}^{2} = 2$

Step 4

Simplify the circle equation.

$x^{2} + {(y - 1)}^{2} = 2$
