9. A circle is a set of all points in a plane equidistant from a given fixed point called the centre. A line segment determined by joining the centre and any point on the circle is called a radius. Circle r C(h,k) y x k h

10. Let r represents the radius C(h,k) represents the centre r C(h,k) P(x,y) Standard equation of a circle x y Q Pythagoras Theorem (CQ) 2 + (PQ) 2 =(PC) 2

11. The equation of the circle with centre (0,0) and radius r is

12. Example 1: Determine the centre, radius and draw the circle represented by the following equation;

13. Solution : So, centre is at (4,-3) and the radius is C(4,-3) x y 0

14. Example 2 : Determine the equation of a circle having its centre at (3,-1) and passing through the point (-1,2). Solution : Radius, So the equation is

15. General equation of a circle Where, the centre ( h,k ) = (- g,- f ) From standard form:

16. General form: Where, and

17. Example 3 : Find the centre and radius of a circle given the equation of circle is

18. By completing the square; Simplify the result, Centre: (1,3) Radius = 2 Solution:

19. Comparing with ; ( h,k ) = ( - g,- f ) = (1,3) and 2g = - 2, g = -1 2f = - 6, f = - 3 - g = 1, - f = 3 Centre: (1,3) Radius = 2 Alternative Method :
