CIRCLE
What is Circle?
It is the set of all points in a plane such
that each point in the set is equidistant
from a fixed point called the center.
The distance from the center is
called the radius. The distance
around the circle is called the
circumference.
Parts of the Circle:
Center Chord
Central Angle Sector
Radius Inscribed Angle
Segment Circumference
Diameter Arc
How to determine if the conic
section is a CIRCLE?
Conic Section’s equation in general form:
Given: Solution:
Center = (-1, 4) (x-h)^2+ (y-k)^2 = r^2
r=7 (x-1)^2+ (y-4)^2 = 7^2
(x-1)^2+ (y-4)^2 = 49
Given:
4a = 24
a = 24/4
a=6
Solution:
Length of latus rectum = 4a Length of latus
= 4(6)
= 24 rectum = 24,
Focus= (a,0) = (6,0) focus = (6,0)
Vertex = (0,0) vertex = (0,0)
Example: Find the standard form of the equation of
the parabola with vertex (3,2) and focus (3,5).
