FIND THE CENTRE AND RADIUS OF THE CIRCLE?

Favorite Answer

Of course its a circle, Joe. The x² and y² coefficents are equal.

x² + y² - 10x + 2y + 25 = 0
(x² - 10x + 25) + (y² + 2y + 1) - 1 = 0
(x-5)² + (y+1)² = 1

Center: (x,y) = (5,-1)
Radius: 1...Show more

X*2+Y*2-10X+2Y+25=0

you need to get in the format (x+a)^2 + (y+b)^2 = c
a and b can be ant number; c must be positive

regroup
(x^2 -10x + 25) + (y^2 + 2y) = 0
add 1 to each side to complete the square
(x^2 -10x +25) + (y^2 +2y +1) = 1
(x-5)^2 + (y+1)^2 = 1
center = 5, -1

you get that by solving (x-5) = 0
x = 5
(y+1) = 0
y = -1

radius = sqrt of the c term
radius =sqrt(c) = sqrt(1)
r = 1...Show more

x^2 + y^2 - 10x + 2y + 25 = 0

Comparing with the general equation of circle

2g = - 10

g = -5

-g = 5

2f = 2

f = 1

-f = -1

Centre of circle is at ( 5 , -1 )

Radius = √ (g^2 + f^2 - c )

= √ 25 + 1 - 25 = 1 unit

Radius = 1 unit...Show more

(x - 5)^2 - 25 + (y + 1)^2 - 1 + 25 = 0

(x - 5)^2 + (y + 1)^2 = 1

(x² - 10x) + (y² + 2y) = - 25
(x² - 10x + 25) + (y² + 2y + 1) = - 25 + 26
(x - 5)² + (y + 1)² = 1
C (5 , - 1) , r = 1...Show more
