coordinate system
RECALL

Factoring:
1. x2 - 12x + 36

GRAPHING A CIRCLE

What are the two things you

need to be able to graph a
circle?
 Radius and Center of the
circle.
GENERAL FORM OF
EQUATION OF A CIRCLE
Ax2 + Ay2 + Cx + Dy + E = 0
Identify the center and radius of
the circle with the given
equation in each item. Sketch its
graph, and indicate the center.
1. x2 + y2 – 49 = 0
2. x2 + y2 – 6y = 7
3. x2 + y2 – 14x + 2y = -14
4. 16x2 + 16y2 + 96x – 40y = 315
Try with your partner:
Identify the center and radius of
the circle with the given
equation in each item. Sketch its
graph, and indicate the center.
1. x2 + y2 – 5x + 4y = 46

2. 4x2 + 4y2 + 40x – 32y = 5

Answers:

1. Center: ( 5/2, -2), radius = 15/2

or 7.5
Answers:

2. Center: ( -5, 4), radius = 13/2

or 6.5
Concentric Problems:
Find the equation of the following
circles.
1. The circle is concentric with
x2 + y2 + 2x – 4y = 5, radius 7.
2. The circle is concentric with
x2 + y2 - 8x – 10y =
-16, four times the area.
3. The circle is concentric with x2 +
y2 - 10x – 6y = -2 and has the same
radius as x2 + y2 – 14x + 6y = -33.
Try:
Find the equation of the following
circles.
1. The circle is concentric with
x2 + y2 + 2x – 4y = 5,
radius 7.
2. Concentric with
x2 + y2 - 8x – 10y = -16,
four times the area.
Practice # 2. June 17, 2019
Find the center and radius of the
following circles and sketch the circle.
2 points each:
1. x2 + y2 – 12x -10y = -12
2. 2x2 + 2y2 -14x + 18y = 7.
4 points:
3. Find the equation of the circle
concentric with x2 + y2 + 10x + 12y
= -12, radius 8.
Answers:

1. Center (6, 5), r = 7

Answers:

2. Center (3.5, -4.5), r = 6
