Write the equation for the circle in vertex form: • Example 1 Step 1: Move the constant to the other side of the equation & put your common variables together
Example 1 • Step 2: Identify the coefficients of the squared terms and divide everything by that coefficient. • Both coefficients are 1 so divide everything by 1
Example 1 • Step 3: Group the x terms together and the y terms together using parenthesis.
Example 1 • Step 4: Complete the square for the x terms Then for the y terms
Example 1 • Step 5: Write the factored form for the groups. What is the center of this circle? What is the radius?
