- GIVE THE CENTER OF THE CIRCLE WITH EQUATION x^2+2x+y^2-10y+22=0. The standard form of the equation of a circle is {{{highlight((x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2)}}}, (h,k)=center, r=radius We complete the squares in order to put the equation in standard form. x^2+2x+y^2-10y+22-22=0-22 x^2+2x+____+y^2-10y+_____=-22+_____+______ To complete the squares take (1/2) the coefficient of the middle term and add it to both sides of the equation. x^2+2x+(2/2)^2+y^2-10y+(-10/2)^2=-22+(2/2)^2+(-10/2)^2 x^2+2x+(1)^2+y^2-10y+(-5)^2=-22+(1)^2+(-5)^2 x^2+2x+1+y^2-10y+25=-22+1+25 (x+1)^2+(y-5)^2=4 The center (h,k)=(-1,5) If you were asked for the radius, it would be {{{sqrt(4)=2}}} Happy Calculating!!! - |

- Find the standard equation of the circle that satisfies the conditions. Center (-1,-3), passing through the point (3,0) In order to write an equation for a circle you need a center and a radius. You're missing a radius, but you can find it with the information that they gave you. The radius is the distance from the center to any point of the circle. The distance formula is r={{{highlight(d=sqrt((x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2))}}} (x1,y1)=(-1,3) and (x2,y2)=(3,0) r={{{d=sqrt((3-(-1))^2+(0-3)^2)}}} r={{{d=sqrt((4)^2+(-3)^2)}}} r={{{d=sqrt(16+9)}}} r={{{d=sqrt(25)}}} r={{{d=5}}} Now that we have a center (h,k)=(-1,-3) and a radius r=5. The standard form of a circle: {{{(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2}}}, (h,k) is the center, and r is the radius. {{{(x-(-1))^2+(y-(-3))^2=5^2}}} {{{highlight((x+1)^2+(y+3)^2=25)}}} : Happy Calculating!!! - |

- Find the centre and radius of the circle: {{{x^2 + y^2 - 12x - 16y - 21 = 0}}} First, add 21 to both sides. {{{x^2 + y^2 - 12x - 16y = 21}}} Now group the x-terms together and the y-terms together. {{{(x^2 - 12x) + (y^2 - 16y) = 21}}} Next, complete the square in x by adding the square of half the x-coefficient to both sides of the equation. {{{(-12/2)^2 = 36}}}, and the same for the y {{{(-16/2)^2 = 64}}} {{{(x^2 - 12x + 36) + (y^2 - 16y + 64) = 21 + 36 + 64}}} Simplify. {{{(x^2 - 12x + 36) + (y^2 - 16y + 64) = 121}}} Factor the x-group and the y-group. {{{(x - 6)^2 + (y - 8)^2 = 121}}} Take the square root of 121 = 11 {{{(x - 6)^2 + (y - 8)^2 = (11)^2}}} Compare with the standard form for a circle with centre at (h, k) and radius, r. {{{(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2}}} The circle centre is at (6, 8) and the radius is 11 - |

- Given the circle: (y+7)^2+(x-4)^2=18 Find the center: (4,-7) Find the exact radius: {{{3sqrt(2)}}} : The standard form of the equation of a line is {{{highlight((x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2)}}}, Where the center is (h,k) and the radius is r. Your equation is a little out of order and I initially put down the wrong answer for the center because I didn't notice. (x-4)^2+(y+7)^2=18 The center is: {{{(x-highlight(4))^2+(y-highlight(-7))^2=18}}} (h,k)=(4,-7) The radius is: {{{(x-4)^2+(y+7)^2=highlight(18)}}} {{{r^2=18}}} {{{r=sqrt(18)}}} {{{r=sqrt(9)*sqrt(2)}}} {{{r=3*sqrt(2)}}} Happy Calculating!!! - |

- Remember that the area of a circle is given by: {{{A = (pi)r^2}}} To solve for r (radius), divide both sides by {{{(pi)}}} {{{A/(pi) = r^2}}} Now take the square root of both sides. {{{sqrt(A/(pi)) = r}}} If A = 25 sq. meters, and {{{(pi)}}} = 3.14 (Approximately) {{{r = sqrt(25/3.14)}}} {{{r = 2.821}}}meters, rounded to the nearest thousandth. - |
