II. Objectives:
 Define a circle and parts of it.
 Determine the standard form of equation of a circle and graph of it in a
rectangular coordinate system.

III. Concept Notes

Circle - A circle is the locus of a point that moves in a plane so that it’s distance from
a fixed points remains constant.

Parts of a circle:

Radius – is the constant distance ( segment connecting to the center and any point
on
the circle)
Center – is the fixed point ( not on the curve of a circle) equidistant from any point on
the circle.
Chord – is the segment connecting any two points of a circle.
Diameter – is the longest chord of a circle. That is one connecting any two points of
a
circle and passing through the center.
Tangeant line – is a line that touches the circle at exactly one point.
Secant line – is a line that intersects the circle at two points.

Standard form of equation:

Center ( 0,0) Center (h , k)

x 2+ y 2=r 2 ( x−h ) + ( y −k )2=r 2
2

Example:

Given the following equation of a circle. Find the center, radius and graph of it.

1) x 2+ y 2=4
c :(0,0)
√ r 2= √ 4
r =2
 2) x 2+ y 2=36
c :(0,0)
√ r 2=√ 36
r =6

3) x 2+ y 2=16
c :(0,0)
√ r 2=√ 16
r =4

IV. Abstraction/Activity

a) Determine the center and radius of each of the following equation. Graph each of
the following (5 pts each)

1) x 2+ y 2=49 6) x 2+ y 2=25
2) x 2+ y 2=121 7) x 2+ y 2=9
3) x 2+ y 2=81 8) x 2+ y 2=169
4) x 2+ y 2=64 9) x 2+ y 2=56
5) x 2+ y 2=144 10) x 2+ y 2=100

b) Draw a circle and label each and every part. Use different colored pen to
differentiate each and every part.

V. Perfomance Tasks

a) Take atleast three picture that can represents to a circle that equidistant to the
center. Put in a short bond paper.

b) Create 2 scenarios that can represents to a circle.
