How do you determine if a point lies inside, on, or outside a circle?

To determine the position of a point (x, y) relative to a circle with center (h, k) and radius r, calculate $$d = (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2$$ . If d r^2, it is outside.

What is the relationship between the diameter and radius of a circle?

The diameter of a circle is twice the radius. It can be expressed as $$d = 2r$$ .

If a circle has a center at (0, 0) and a radius of 5, what is its equation?

The equation of the circle is $$x^2 + y^2 = 25$$ .

What is the distance formula used for in relation to circles?

The distance formula is used to find the distance between the center of the circle and any point on the circle, which should equal the radius.

How do you graph a circle given its equation?

To graph a circle, identify the center (h, k) and radius r from the equation, then plot the center and draw a circle with radius r around it.

What happens to the equation of a circle if the center is moved?

If the center of a circle is moved, the values of h and k in the equation $$(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2$$ change accordingly.

What is the effect of changing the radius in the equation of a circle?

Changing the radius in the equation $$(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2$$ affects the size of the circle; a larger radius results in a larger circle.

How can you identify the center and radius from the equation $$(x - 1)^2 + (y + 3)^2 = 9$$ ?

The center is (1, -3) and the radius is 3 (since r = sqrt(9)).
