Graph of a circle

Explanation:

This becomes clearer if the right hand side is written in scientific notation
#(y-100)^2 + x^2 = 10^4#
#(y-100)^2 +x^2 = (10^2)^2#
This then can be seen to be the equation of a circle with radius #10^2 = 100# and with centre #(0,100)#
Thus the graph will be as follows.
