Graphing and Writing Circle Equations

This video tutorial covers writing and graphing equations of circles. It begins with an introduction to the objectives, which include writing the equation of a circle and graphing it. The standard equation of a circle is explained, followed by examples demonstrating how to find the center and radius from an equation. The video also covers using the distance formula to find the radius and write circle equations. Steps for graphing a circle from its equation are provided, along with methods for writing equations from graphs. The tutorial concludes with a problem-solving exercise to determine if a point lies on a circle.

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

• r = (x + h) + (y + k)

• r = (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2

• r^2 = (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2

• r^2 = (x + h)^2 + (y + k)^2
