This video tutorial by Kirk Weiler covers the equations of circles, focusing on their definition, standard form, and solving related problems. It begins with an introduction to circle equations and the importance of the distance formula. The tutorial then explains how to derive the standard form of circle equations and solve exercises to find circle centers and radii. It also covers graphing and converting between graphs and equations, concluding with a section on completing the square to determine circle properties.
