Question
Identify the geometric shape described by the given equation.$$(x-1)^{2}+y^{2}+(z+2)^{2}=4$$
Step 1
Step 1: The general equation of a sphere in 3D space is given by $(x-a)^{2}+(y-b)^{2}+(z-c)^{2}=r^{2}$, where $(a,b,c)$ is the center of the sphere and $r$ is the radius of the sphere. Show more…
