This video tutorial explains how to write the equation of a circle in standard form, identify the center and radius, and graph the circle. It covers recognizing the general form, completing the square, factoring, and determining the circle's center and radius. The tutorial concludes with graphing the circle on a coordinate plane.

What is the standard form of a circle's equation?

• (x + h)^2 + (y + k)^2 = r^2

• x^2 + y^2 = r^2

• ax^2 + by^2 + cx + dy + e = 0

• (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2
