Find the center and radius of the circle

Solution: $$\displaystyle x^{2}+y^{2}-4x - 8y - 45 = 0$$
$$\displaystyle \Rightarrow \left ( x^{2}- 4x \right ) + \left ( y^{2} - 8y\right )=45$$
$$\displaystyle \Rightarrow$$ $$\displaystyle \left \{ x^{2}-2\left ( x \right )\left ( 2 \right )+2^{2} \right \}+\left \{ y^{2} - 2\left ( y \right )\left ( 4 \right )+4^{2} \right \}- 4 - 16 = 45$$
$$\displaystyle \Rightarrow \left ( x - 2 \right )^{2}+ \left ( y- 4 \right )^{2} = 65$$
$$\displaystyle \Rightarrow$$ $$\displaystyle \left ( x - 2 \right )^{2}+\left ( y - 4 \right )^{2}=\left ( \sqrt{65} \right )^{2}$$
Which is of the form $$\displaystyle \left ( x - h \right )^{2}+\left ( y - k^{2} \right )= r^{2}$$
where $$h = 2, k = 4$$ and $$r = \displaystyle \sqrt{65}$$
Thus the centre of the given circle is $$(2, 4)$$ while its radius is $$\displaystyle \sqrt{65}$$
