Figure 2.7 Figure 2.8 Pls,y) 2.3 Circles and Ellipses Circles and ellipses are the figures formed by a section of a cone as shown in Figures 2.1b and c. The most familiar of the conic sections, a circle, is often defined as follows. Definition 2.2 A circle is the set of points in a plane that are at a given distance (the radius) from a fixed point (the center) (sce Figure 2.7). Standard Equations of. Circles Circles that have their center at the origin have simple equations, As indicated in Figure 2.8, any point P(x, y) on such a circle is at a distance from the origin, and by the distance formula, r= f(x = 07 +(y- 07 = Sx? + From this we have the following theorem. Theorem 2.4 A circle having the origin as its center and radius r has an equation ; Py Example 1 A circle centered at the origin, and containing the point (2,3) has a radius r given by . r= /Q-0F + 3-07 = /13. Thercfore, r?=13 and an equation of the circle is Dipindai dengan CamScanner Figure 240 Hams Awan tenuntienre OF Ei rems Anadis isrtee wsttrn, ae en eign, 10 hin ABW 44 Ketovny W140 PLO WH thy , Seteavssom 1.4 An etliges 10 the v0 of pre re Fe ie suues fram tne Red pant feed 4 ath pow 4 etasis (wee Figure 19 Keamnghe } ip sacticen 1 | ahusisaian # diesel plication al Uehang a3 As sheccwn iw Figure 110, thee cantar of a HIRSH 4 POLK Hayy tectiwcan tha Leics Va bes Ihiteaghe the fect intaremete the silijag iy \.
