2. Objectives Write the equation of a circle Graph a circle on the coordinate plane using an equation

3. Standard Equation of a Circle An equation for a circle with center at (h, k) and radius of r units is (x – h) 2 + (y – k) 2 = r 2

4. Example 8-1a Equation of a circle Simplify. Answer: Write an equation for a circle with the center at (3, –3), d 12.

5. Example 8-1b Equation of a circle Simplify. Answer: Write an equation for a circle with the center at (–12, –1), r 8.

6. Example 8-1c Answer: Write an equation for each circle. a. center at (0, –5), d 18 b. center at (7, 0), r 20 Answer:

7. Example 8-2a Sketch a drawing of the two tangent lines. A circle with a diameter of 10 has its center in the first quadrant. The lines y –3 and x –1 are tangent to the circle. Write an equation of the circle.

8. Example 8-2b Since d 10, r 5. The line x –1 is perpendicular to a radius. Since x –1 is a vertical line, the radius lies on a horizontal line. Count 5 units to the right from x –1. Find the value of h.

9. Example 8-2b The center is at (4, 2), and the radius is 5. Answer: An equation for the circle is. Likewise, the radius perpendicular to the line y –3 lies on a vertical line. The value of k is 5 units up from –3.

10. Example 8-2c Answer: A circle with a diameter of 8 has its center in the second quadrant. The lines y –1 and x 1 are tangent to the circle. Write an equation of the circle.

11. Example 8-3a Graph Compare each expression in the equation to the standard form. The center is at (2, –3), and the radius is 2. Graph the center. Use a compass set at a width of 2 grid squares to draw the circle.

12. Example 8-3b Answer:

13. Example 8-3c Graph Write the expression in standard form. The center is at (3, 0), and the radius is 4. Draw a circle with radius 4, centered at (3, 0).

14. Example 8-3d Answer:

15. Example 8-3e Answer: a. Graph

16. Example 8-3f Answer: b. Graph

17. Example 8-4a ELECTRICITY Strategically located substations are extremely important in the transmission and distribution of a power company’s electric supply. Suppose three substations are modeled by the points D(3, 6), E(–1, 0), and F(3, –4). Determine the location of a town equidistant from all three substations, and write an equation for the circle. Explore You are given three points that lie on a circle. Plan Graph  DEF. Construct the perpendicular bisectors of two sides to locate the center, which is the location of the tower. Find the length of a radius. Use the center and radius to write an equation.

18. Example 8-4b Solve Graph  DEF and construct the perpendicular bisectors of two sides. The center appears to be at (4, 1). This is the location of the tower. Find r by using the Distance Formula with the center and any of the three points. Write an equation.

19. Example 8-4d Examine You can verify the location of the center by finding the equations of the two bisectors and solving a system of equations. You can verify the radius by finding the distance between the center and another of the three points on the circle. Answer:

20. Example 8-4e AMUSEMENT PARKS The designer of an amusement park wants to place a food court equidistant from the roller coaster located at (4, 1), the Ferris wheel located at (0, 1), and the boat ride located at (4, –3). Determine the location for the food court and write an equation for the circle. Answer:
