circle in XY plot

Hi everyone.

So I'm new to Mathcad and I wanted to create circle from form (x-1)^2+(y-3)^2=10, but everything that I can find about plots is way too advanced for me. 

Any simple way to do circle from form like this above?

Prime does not support plotting implicit given functions like other software may do, so you can't use the given equation directly. You can solve it for y and plot the upper and lower semicircle in two different traces. There will be gaps between the two which could be minimized by choosing a rather dense range variable for x.

A better way is to use the standard parameter representation of the circle where the whole circle can be plotted in one go.

The attached sheet (format Prime 9) should help.

For further help you would have to ask again and I would suggest that you set up a worksheet and attach it.
If you are not using the latest version of Prime (version 9 at this time) you also should clearly say so.
