Writing Equations of Circles in Center-Radius Form

This video tutorial by Mr. Wit from Fort B Tutoring covers the center-radius form of circles. It begins with an introduction to the concept and proceeds to solve various problems, including finding the center and radius from given equations, using the distance formula and Pythagorean theorem, and determining the center from the midpoint of a diameter. The tutorial also explores using tangent lines and the area of a circle to find the radius. The video concludes with solving a system of equations to determine the center and radius of a circle.

Given a center at (3, -2) and a radius of 5, what is the center-radius form of the circle?

• (x - 5)^2 + (y + 5)^2 = 10

• (x + 3)^2 + (y + 2)^2 = 5

• (x + 3)^2 + (y - 2)^2 = 25

• (x - 3)^2 + (y + 2)^2 = 25
