Page 1: Graphing Circles and Identifying Components
This page focuses on graphing circles given their equations in standard form and identifying their key components.
The worksheet begins with exercises on graphing circles and identifying their centers and radii. Students are presented with equations in standard form of a circle and asked to plot them on a coordinate plane.
Definition: The standard form of a circle equation is (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r², where (h, k) is the center and r is the radius.
For example, the first question presents the equation (x - 6)² + (y - 1)² = 9. Students are expected to identify the center as (6, 1) and the radius as 3.
Example: For the equation x² + (y + 2)² = 64, the center is (0, -2) and the radius is 8.
The second part of the page involves identifying various components of circles given their equations. This includes finding centers, radii, diameters, circumferences, and areas.
Highlight: Students practice calculating derived values such as diameter (2r), circumference (2πr), and area (πr²) from the given equations.
These exercises reinforce the connection between the algebraic representation of circles and their geometric properties, which is crucial for understanding how to graph a circle in standard form.
