Concept:

The radius of the circle represented by the general equation x2 + y2 + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0 is given by r2 = g2 + f2 - c > 0, with the center at (-g, -f).

Calculation:

The given equation of the circle can be written as:

16(x2 + y2) + 24x + 32y - 9 = 0

⇒ x2 + y2 + x + 2y - = 0

Comparing this with the general form of the circle's equation, we have:

g = , f = 1, c = 

Now, radius =
