Objective: To understand the standard form of the equations of circles.

Standard Form of the Equations of Circles y


(a) The equation of a circle in the standard form is (x − h) + (y − k) = r .

Write down the coordinates of the centre and the Write down the coordinates of the centre and the
radius of the circle (x + 4)2 + (y − 2)2 = 49. radius of the circle 4(x − 1)2 + 4(y + 7)2 = 16.

(x + 4)2 + (y − 2)2 = 49 4(x − 1)2 + 4(y + 7)2 = 16


Rewrite the equation in
[x − (−4)]2 + (y − 2)2 = 72  the standard form first. (x − 1)2 + (y + 7)2 = ( )
∴ The coordinates of the centre are (−4 , 2) and [x − ( )]2 + [y − ( )]2 = ( )2
the radius is 7. ∴ The coordinates of the centre are ( , ) and
the radius is ( ).

For each of the following equations of circles, write down the coordinates of the centre and the radius of
the circle. [Nos. 7–10] Ex 7A: 5
