General from of the equation of a circle

2 2 0x y ax by c

where a, b, and c are variables

Page 4: Graphing Circles Viviana C. Castellón East Los Angeles College MEnTe Mathematics Enrichment through Technology

Graphing a circle whose equation is in general form

Since the equation given is in the general form, completing the square will be used. By completing the square, the equation can then be set-up in the standard form of an equation of a circle therefore, identifying its center and radius.
