Graphing The Circle

tips and tricks on how to graph a circle

QuestionAnswer
What is the standard equation for a circle? (x-h)² + (y-k)² = r²
How do you find the radius of a circle? Use the distance formula(s) r=√((x-h)²+(y-k)²), r²=(x-h)²+(y-k)²
What is the standard equation for the circle whose center is at (1,9) and whose radius is 5? (x-1)²+(y-9)²=25 remember the equation (x-h)²+(y-k)² = r²? (h,k) represent the center of a circle. (1,9)and the radius is represented by r² (5) all you have to do is plug in the numbers!
How would you find the center of a circle who is represented by the equation x²+y²=25 First write the equation in standard form (x-o)²+(y-0)²=5² take a look at the standard equation for a circle (x-h)² +(y-k)²=r² now remember that (h,k) represents the center of the circle. Thus in this case it would be (0,0)
How would you find the radius of a circle who is represented by the equation x²+y²=25 First write the equation in standard form (x-o)²+(y-0)²=5² take a look at the standard equation for a circle (x-h)² +(y-k)²=r² now rember that all you have to do is find the square root of 25(r²) shown above in the equation. √25 = 5. The radius is 5
What is the differnce between the equation of a circle and the equation of a parabola? A circle contains both x² and y² terms on the same side of the equation with equal coefficients etc. (x²+y²=25). and the equation for a parabola has either an x² term or a y² term but not both. (etc. x=y²-1)
What is the midpoint of a diameter of a circle? The midpoint is the center of the circle
The radius is the distance from the center of the circle to....? Any point of the circle

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
