Definition & Standard Equations of a Circle

I. Central form of the Equation of a Circle

From the definition of a circle, we find the equation of its locus.
P(h, k)
r
(x1, y1)
This is called central form of circle with centre (x1, y1) and radius ‘r’.
II. General form of the Equation of a circle
where ≡ and
III. Some Standard Notations
Any second degree equation in two variables, that is,
ax2 + 2hxy + by2 + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0 will be represented as S = 0
1. S ≡ x2 + y2 + 2gx + 2fy + c
2. Consider a point (x1, y1). Value of S at (x1, y1) is represented by S1
that is, S1 = x12 + y12 + 2gx1 + 2fy1 + c
Position of a Line with respect to a Circle and

Equations of Tangents
For a given line and a circle, either

(a) line cuts the circle, or
(b) line touches the circle, or
(c) line does not meet the circle
In the section we will be studying their conditions.

No doubt, major focus will be (b), that is tangency condition.
Similarly, for this circle

Common Tangents
In this topic, we will try to observe the number of common tangents of
two circles, depending upon their positions.
We will also learn how to find lengths and equations of the common
tangents.
Try to observe how we can comment upon the positions of two circles
depending on their radii and the distance between their centres.
