Prompt
What is standard form for a circle?
Answer
\((x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2\).
Prompt
What is the center in standard form?
Answer
\((h,k)\).
Prompt
How is radius read from standard form?
Answer
Take the positive square root of the right side.
Prompt
What center does (x+3)² show?
Answer
An x-coordinate of -3.
Prompt
What center does (y-5)² show?
Answer
A y-coordinate of 5.
Prompt
What completes x²+bx to a square?
Answer
Add \((b/2)^2\).
Prompt
What must happen when completing a square in an equation?
Answer
Add the same value to both sides.
Prompt
How is a circle center found from diameter endpoints?
Answer
Take their midpoint.
Prompt
How is radius found from diameter endpoints?
Answer
Take half their distance, or distance from midpoint to one endpoint.
Prompt
For center (h,k), what radius gives y-axis tangency?
Answer
\(|h|\).
Prompt
For center (h,k), what radius gives x-axis tangency?
Answer
\(|k|\).
Prompt
How can circle area be read quickly from standard form?
Answer
The right side is r², so multiply it by π.
Prompt
What must r² be for a real nondegenerate circle?
Answer
Positive.
Prompt
What does translating a circle change?
Answer
The center, not the radius.
Prompt
What is the leftmost x-coordinate of a circle?
Answer
\(h-r\).
Prompt
What is the highest y-coordinate of a circle?
Answer
\(k+r\).
Prompt
Center (-2,4), radius 3: equation?
Answer
\((x+2)^2+(y-4)^2=9\).
Prompt
Complete x²-8x: what is added?
Answer
16.
Prompt
Diameter endpoints (-5,1) and (3,1): center and radius?
Answer
Center (-1,1), radius 4.
Prompt
Why is the right side 49 not radius 49?
Answer
It represents r², so the radius is 7.
