This document introduces conic sections and circles. It defines a circle as the locus of all points with the same fixed distance from a fixed point, called the center. The standard form equation of a circle given the center (h,k) and radius r is (x-h)2 + (y-k)2 = r2. Several examples are worked through to find the equation of a circle given properties like the center and radius or the endpoints of a diameter. The general form equation is also discussed for transforming into standard center-radius form.
