This video tutorial explains how to write the equation of a circle given different pieces of information. It covers the two main forms of circle equations, demonstrates solving for the equation with a given center and radius, and shows how to find the radius using a point on the circle. Additionally, it explains how to determine the circle's equation using the endpoints of its diameter.

What is the equation of a circle centered at the origin?

• x^2 + y^2 = 2r

• x^2 + y^2 = 2r^2

• x^2 + y^2 = r^2

• x^2 + y^2 = r
