Writing the Equation of a Circle in Standard Form

The video tutorial explains the standard form of a circle's equation: (X - H)^2 + (Y - K)^2 = R^2. It reviews the components of a circle, including the center (H, K) and the radius R. The tutorial provides an example where the center is at (-2, 0) and the radius is 16, demonstrating how to substitute these values into the equation to find the circle's equation.

What does R represent in the circle's equation?

• Radius of the circle

• Area of the circle

• Circumference of the circle

• Diameter of the circle

When simplifying x - (-2)^2 + y - 0^2 = 16^2, what does the equation become?

• (x + 2)^2 + y^2 = 256

• x^2 + 4 + y^2 = 256

• (x + 2)^2 + y^2 = 16

• (x - 2)^2 + y^2 = 256
