• Illustrating the Center-Radius Form of the Equation of a Circle.

TRY TO DISCOVER!

A radio signal can transmit messages up to a distance of 5 km. If the radio

signal’s origin is located at a point whose coordinates are (0,0), what is the
equation of the circle that defines the boundary up to which the messages can
be transmitted?

Recall:

Circle - The set of all points on a plane that are a fixed distance from a center.
Pythagorean Theorem : a2 + b2 = c2 ; where a and b are the sides of a triangle and c is the
hypothenuse.

Let us show the illustration of the

problem using a cartesian plane.
We have here a circle, whose center is
(0,0) and a radius of 5 km. 5 km

Let P (x, y) be any point on the circle.

To locate all the exact points, let us form
a right triangle and apply the
Pythagorean Theorem. Since the sides of
the right triangle we formed are x and y,
we will have:
2 2 2 2 2
x +y =5 or x + y = 25 P (x,y)
Therefore, the equation of the circle that 5 km

defines the boundary up to which the y

messages can be transmitted is
2 2
x + y = 25.
x

There are infinite numbers of points in

the circle. Some points are shown in the
next figure.

If we have here a circle, whose center is r

(0, 0) and a radius r, then the equation will y

2 2 2
be x + y = r .
x

What would be the center-radius form

of the equation of circle if the center is
at (h, k) with a radius of r units?

P (x,y)
One possible illustration on the cartesian
plane would be like the figure on the r
(h,k) y-k
right.
The sides of the right triangle formed are x-h
labeled (x - h) and (y - k), respectively.
Since the center is not at the origin
anymore, the side x will be less by the
value of h while the side y will be less by
the value of k.
Applying the Pythagorean theorem, the
2 2 2
equation will be: (x - h) + (y - k) = r .

Therefore, the center-radius form of the equation of circle if the center is at (h,k)
2 2 2
with a radius of r units is (x - h) + (y - k) = r .

1. Given the center (-5, 1) and a radius
of 3 units, what is the center-radius
form of the equation of the circle?
(-5,1)
Solution: (-5, 1); r = 3 3
2 2 2
(x - h) + (y - k) = r
2 2 2
(x – (-5)) + (y – 1) = 2

(x + 5) + (y – 1) = 4

• Determining the Equation of a Circle Given its Center and Radius

TRY TO DISCOVER!

Grade 10 – Rizal was tasked to write the equation of a circle in general form given the
following figures:

1. C (0, 0) and r = 5 cm 2. C (2, -3) and r = 5 cm

The first figure having the center (0,0) and r = 5 cm was completed by Marrie. She first
recited the equation of a circle if the center lies at the origin and with radius measuring r units.
Her solutions are shown below.
Step 1. Write the equation of a circle if the center lies at the origin and with raduis
measuring r units.
𝒙𝟐 + 𝒚𝟐 = 𝒓𝟐
Step 2. Determine the center and radius of the circle.
𝑪 (𝟎, 𝟎) 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒓 = 𝟓 𝒄𝒎
Step 3. Substitute the given radius to the equation of a circle since the center is at the
origin.
𝒙𝟐 + 𝒚𝟐 = 𝟓𝟐
Step 4. Square the radius, the result is the center-radius form of the equation of the
circle.
𝒙𝟐 + 𝒚𝟐 = 𝟐𝟓
Step 5. Apply the addition porperty of equality to get the general form of the equation of
th circle.
𝒙𝟐 + 𝒚𝟐 − 𝟐𝟓 = 𝟎

Therefore, the equation of the circle whose center is at (0,0) and with radius of 5cm is
𝒙 + 𝒚𝟐 = 𝟐𝟓 in center-radius form and 𝒙𝟐 + 𝒚𝟐 − 𝟐𝟓 = 𝟎 in general form.

Was Marrie correct with her solutions and answers?

Yes, She was Correct!
The second figure having the center (2, -3) and r = 5 cm was completed by Currie. She
then first recited the equaiton of a circle in standard form if the center lies at (h, k) and with
radius measuring r units.
Her solutions are shown below.
Step 1. Write the equation of a circle in center – radius form if the center lies at (h, k) and
with radius measuring r units.
(𝒙 − 𝒉)𝟐 + (𝒚 − 𝒌)𝟐 = 𝒓𝟐
Step 2. Determine the center and radius of the circle.
𝑪 (𝟐, −𝟑) 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒓 = 𝟓 𝒄𝒎
𝒘𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒆; 𝒉 = 𝟐 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒌 = −𝟑
Step 3. Substitute the coordinates of the center and the radius to the equation of the
circle.
(𝒙 − 𝒉)𝟐 + (𝒚 − 𝒌)𝟐 = 𝒓𝟐
(𝒙 − 𝟐)𝟐 + [𝒚 − (−𝟑)]𝟐 = 𝟓𝟐
Step 4. Perform the indicated operation.
(𝒙 − 𝟐)𝟐 + [𝒚 − (−𝟑)]𝟐 = 𝟓𝟐
(𝒙 − 𝟐)𝟐 + (𝒚 + 𝟑)𝟐 = 𝟐𝟓 center-radius form
Step 5. Express each square of binomial as a perfect square trinomial (PST).
(𝒙 − 𝟐)𝟐 + (𝒚 + 𝟑)𝟐 = 𝟐𝟓
𝒙 − 𝟒𝒙 + 𝟒 + 𝒚𝟐 + 𝟔𝒚 + 𝟗 = 𝟐𝟓
𝟐

Step 6. Apply addition property of equality by adding both sides of the equation by the
additive inverse of the raduis, then simplify.
𝒙𝟐 − 𝟒𝒙 + 𝟒 + 𝒚𝟐 + 𝟔𝒚 + 𝟗 = 𝟐𝟓
𝒙 − 𝟒𝒙 + 𝟒 + 𝒚𝟐 + 𝟔𝒚 + 𝟗 − 𝟐𝟓 = 𝟐𝟓 − 𝟐𝟓
𝟐

𝒙𝟐 + 𝒚𝟐 − 𝟒𝒙 + 𝟔𝒚 − 𝟏𝟐 = 𝟎 general form

Therefore, the equation of the circle whose center is at (2, -3) and with radius of 5 cm is
(𝒙 − 𝟐)𝟐 + (𝒚 + 𝟑)𝟐 = 𝟐𝟓 in center-radius form and 𝒙𝟐 + 𝒚𝟐 − 𝟒𝒙 + 𝟔𝒚 − 𝟏𝟐 = 𝟎 in general
form.

Was Currie correct with her solutions and answers?

Yes, She was Correct!

The equation of a circle in Center – Radius form with center at point (h, k) and a radius
measuring r units is

(𝒙 − 𝒉)𝟐 + (𝒚 − 𝒌)𝟐 = 𝒓𝟐
and its General form is given by:

𝒙𝟐 + 𝒚𝟐 + 𝑫𝒙 + 𝑬𝒚 + 𝑭 = 𝟎

Did you notice that the equation of a circle with the center lies at the origin (0,0) is just a
special case of the equation for a circle at point (h,k)?
When h = 0 and k = 0 (for the center at the origin), the equation of the circle
becomes;
(𝒙 − 𝒉)𝟐 + (𝒚 − 𝒌)𝟐 = 𝒓𝟐
(𝒙 − 𝟎)𝟐 + (𝒚 − 𝟎)𝟐 = 𝒓𝟐

OBJECTIVE: Graphs circle on the coordinate plane given the center and radius.

YOUR LESSON FOR TODAY:

• Graphing circle on the coordinate plane given the center and radius

TRY TO DISCOVER!

Can you help me answer this problem?

Let us read the problem.
A particular cell phone tower is designed to service a
7-mile radius. The tower is located at (-2, 1) on a coordinate
plane whose units represent miles. Is a cellphone user at (5, -2)
within the service range?
Let us illustrate the problem.

Using the illustration at the left, we

can say that the distance from the
center to the cellphone user is larger
than the radius of the coverage area.
Therefore, the cellphone user is outside
the service range.
Now, what do you think happens
when we are outside the service range
of a cellphone site?
Yes, signal and communication will
be a problem.
It is very helpful when we know how
to locate the center of the circle on the
coordinate plane, and use its radius to
draw a circle.
By illustrating the location of the cell phone tower and the position of the cellphone user, we
are able to answer the problem.

How do we graph circle using its center and radius?

Do you have an idea about it?

Here are the steps to follow in graphing circle given its center and radius:
1. Draw a coordinate plane.
2. Locate the center of the circle on the coordinate plane.
3. Use the radius of the circle to locate atleast four points on the circle from its
center, horizontally and vertically.
4. Use a compass to draw the circle.
5. Name the circle using its equation in center-radius form.

Let us have an example.

ARE YOU READY TO PRACTICE?

Graph the following circles on a coordinate plane given:

a. Center (-2, -3); r = 4 b. Center (0, 0); r = 6
c. Center (-5, 1); r = 5 d. Center ( 4, -3); r = 3

Let us share our answers.

a. b.

The equation of the circle in center-radius The equation of the circle in center-radius
form is . form is .
The given are h = -2, k = -3 and r = 4 The given are h = 0, k = 0 and r = 6
Substitute this to the formula, we get, Substitute this to the formula, we get,
(x – (-2))2 + (y – (-3))2 = 42 (x – 0)2 + (y – 0)2 = 62
(x + 2)2 + (y + 3)2 = 42 x2 + y2 = 62
Thus, Thus,
(x + 2)2 + (y + 3)2 = 16 is the equation x 2 + y2 = 36 is the equation
of the circle in center-radius form. of the circle in center-radius form.

c. d.

The equation of the circle in center-radius The equation of the circle in center-radius
form is . form is .
The given are h = -5, k = 1 and r = 5 The given are h = 4, k = -3 and r = 3
Substitute this to the formula, we get, Substitute this to the formula, we get,
(x – (-5))2 + (y – (1))2 = 52 x – (4))2 + (y – (-3))2 = 32
(x + 5) + (y – 1) = 5
2 2 2
(x – 4)2 + (y + 3)2 = 32
Thus, Thus,
(x + 5) + (y – 1) = 25 is the equation
2 2
(x – 4)2 + (y + 3)2 = 9 is the equation
of the circle in center-radius form. of the circle in center-radius form.

PRACTICE EXERCISES 3:

Solve the problem. (Use another sheet of paper to draw your solution)
You are living in a province with an existing active volcano. Due to the recent volcanic
activities, PHILVOCS alerts an emergency evacuation for all residents in the 7 km danger zone
of the volcano. If the volcano is located at coordinates (1, 2), which represent the horizontal and
vertical distance (in km) from the town reference point, and you found out that your household
area is at coordinates (5, 7), does your family need to evacuate? Why?

EVALUATION:

a. Center (2, 3); r = 5 b. Center (-4, -2); r=4

c. x2 + y2 = 52 d. (x + 3)2 + (y – 4)2 = 16
