Circles
The circle with center C and radius R is all points P that are exactly R from C
If C = (h,k) and P = (x,y) then
Distance (P,C) = R
( )x h 2 ( )y k 2 R
( )x h 2 ( )y k 2 R2
Since we always prefer to avoid radicals if possible we square both sides
This is the standard form of the equation for the circle of radius R with center at (h,k)
Examples:
Q. What is the standard form of the equation of the circle with center (2,5) and radius 6?
Sln: From
h = 2, k = 5, R = 6 so the answer is
( )x h 2 ( )y k 2 R2
( )x 2 2 ( )y 5 2 62
Q. What is the (standard) equation of the circle with radius 3 centered at (5,-8)?
ANS: h = 5, k = -8, R = 3 so
( )x 5 2 ( )y -8 2 32or
( )x 5 2 ( )y 8 2 9
Q. What are the center and radius of the circle with the following equation?
( )x 3 2 ( )y 5 2 10
ANS: Looking at we have
h = 3, k = 5,
( )x h 2 ( )y k 2 R2
R 10
Q. What are the center and radius of the circle with equation
ANS: compare to and we see that
h = -7, y = 0, and R = 11.

Equations for circles may not be in standard form
Expand to get an equivalent equation:
x2 2 x h h2 y2 2 y k k2 R2
x2 y2 2 x h 2 k y h2 k2 R2
Which might also be written as
x2 y2 2 x h 2 k y h2 k2 R2 0
Note that the coefficients of x and y are both 1 (in particular they are equal) and that the h and k are “contained in” the coefficients of x and y.
x2 y2 2 x h 2 k y h2 k2 R2 0
Q. What is are the center and radius of the circle with the following equation?
x2 10 x 26 y2 14 y 0
x2 10 x y2 14 y 26 0
Looking at the form
And arranging the given equation to correspond
Then comparing coefficients we see thatcoefficient of x = -2h = -10 so h = 5coefficient of y = -2k = -14 so k = 7
constant term = -26 = h2 k2 R2
But we just determines h an k so -26 = 25 + 49 - R2
So = 100 or R = 10. R2
Q. What is the standard form of the equation of the circle with the following equation?
x2 6 x 15 y2 2 y 0
Looking at x2 2 x h h2 y2 2 y k k2 R2 0
And comparing coefficients we see that -6 = -2h, 2 = -2k, and
= - 15
So h = 3, k = -2, and 9 + 1 – R^2 = -15 so 25 = R^2 and R = 5.
With this the standard equation is
h2 k2 R2
( )x 3 2 ( )y 1 2 52
Remark: The equation may be multiplied by a number. For instance if we had been
given we notice that the coefficients of x^2 and y^2 areboth 2. We want those coefficients to be 1 so we divide through by 2 to get
which we solved above.

Points of intersection of two circles.Two Circles can meet in 0, 1, or 2 points: C and D meet at no points, A and B at 1 point, B and C at 2 points.
Q. What are the points of intersection of the circle withradius R1 centered at A = (a1,a2) and the circle with radius R2 centered at B = (b1,b2)?
Sln: This is equivalent to solving the two equationssimultaneously
( )x a1 2 ( )y a2 2 R12
( )x b1 2 ( )y b2 2 R22
The coordinates (p,q) of P1 will be solutions to eachequation, similarly the coordinates of P2 will solve each.
Critical Observation: If (p,q) is a solution to each ofthe above equations it is a solution to the difference of the two equations.
( )x a1 2 ( )y a2 2 R12_
( )x b1 2 ( )y b2 2 R22____________________________
( ) 2 a1 2 b1 x ( ) 2 a2 2 b2 y R12 a12 b12 a22 b22 R22 0
The important thing is that the difference of the standard equations for twocircles is a linear equation. Since the coordinates of P1 and P2 are solutions to each equation they are solutions to the linear equation. Since two points determine a line the difference is the equation of the line through the points ofintersection of the circles.
Thus the points of intersection of the two circles are the points of intersection of the line and either circle.
Q. What are the points of intersection of the circle of radius 2 centered at (1,2) and the circle of radius sqrt(3) centered at (0,1)?
Sln: The two equations are:
Subtracting the two equations and simplifying we get
or y = -x + 3/2
Substitute for y in the second equation (we could use either) we get
or solving with the
quadratic formula gives x –values of from which we substitute in to into y = -x+3/2 to get the points and

Q. What are the points of intersection of the circle of radius 1 centered at the origin and the circle of radius 2 centered at (0,3)?
Sln: The two equations are
and
The difference of the two equations gives y = 1
Substituting for y in the first equation we get so we have onlyone solution x = 0 which gives us only one point (0,1)
In this case the two circles are tangent and have a single point in common.

Q. What are the points of intersection of the circle with equations
and
Sln. The difference of the two equations is Solve for y and substitute into the first equation to get
The quadratic expands to
When we apply the quadratic formula the discriminant
Is (-30)^2 -4*10*24 = -60 which has no real square roots. This says that thereare no real values for the x-coordinates of the points of intersection – there are nopoints of intersection.
The diagram shows the two non-intersecting circles. Note that even though the circles
don’t intersect the linear equation defined by the difference of the two equations stillmakes sense and is the equation of a line which is perpendicular to the line connecting centers of the two circles.

Rational Parameterization of the circle.
Parameterization of a line gives us a way to identify each point on the line witha number in a one-to-one fashion. Parameterization of the circle has the same objective – to identify each point on the circle with a number
Line with slope = m through (-R,0)Consider the circle of radius R centeredat the origin. The parameterization is:
“The number m corresponds to the other point ofintersection of the line with slope m through thepoint (-R,0).
Since we can calculate the points of intersection of a line and a circle we calculate the correspondence is
m -> ( , )
Going the other way is easy. If P = (a,b) then the m is the slope of the line from (a,b) to (-R,0) so
(a,b) - >
Length R + a
Length bR ( )1 m2
1 m2
2 R m
1 m2
ba R
There is no real number to correspond to the point (-R,0) since the line that meets the circle“twice” at (-R,0) is vertical and has an infinite slope.For this reason we say that (-R,0) corresponds toinfinity
Q. In the parameterization of the circle of radius 3, centered at the origin by slopes of lines through (-3,0) which point on the circle corresponds to slope m = -5?
ANS -5 -> ( , ) = ( -36/13, -15/13)
Q. What is the value of m that corresponds to the point P = (9/5, 12/5) ?
ANS: m = (12/5)/(3 + (9/5)) = 1/2
Note also that if one substitutes m = ½ as was done for m = -5 above thepoint returned is (9/5,12/5)/ ,

Pythagorean triples:The three integers (a,b,c) are a pythagorean triple if
One geometric interpretation (for positive a,b,c) is that these are the lengths of the right triangles whose sides all have whole number length.
Some examples are (3,4,5) since 3^2 + 4^2 = 5^2 and(7,12,13) since 7^2 + 12^2 = 13^2
We can make up formulas to generate pythagorean triples – based on the fact that for any numbers a and b
Divide by 4
This says that if a*b is a square and both a+ b and a-b are even then the result is a pythagorean triple. We can do this by takinga and b to both be squares and both be odd or even. That is take

,a s2 b t2 With s and t both even or both odd and
is a pythagorean triple
Example: If s =3, t =1 then we get x = 4, y = 3, t = 5
If s = 5, t = 1 we get x = 12, y = 5, z = 13
If s = 5, t= 7 we get x = -12, y = 35, z = 37 The -12 doesn’t affect the fact that the sums of the squares of the first two is thethird. We could avoid the negative sign by insisting that s > t but since we are interested in the squares we can just take the absolute value and 12, 35, 37 is a pythagorean triple
Note that by taking t =1 and s odd numbers we get an infinite number of righttriangles with integer length sides such that for any odd number you can make a right triangle with integer lengths such that the chosen number is the length of theleg of smallest length and the hypotenuse is one larger than the other leg. For instanceif s=101 (and t=1) then the formula gives us y = 101, x = 5100, z = 5101

Pythagorean triples and the unit circle.
The unit circle is the circle of radius 1 centered at the origin. It has equation
x2 y2 1A point (x,y) on the unit circle is a rational point if x and y are rational numbers.That is if x and y are each the ratio of two integers.
(0,1), (1,0), (3/5, 4/5) are rational points on the unit circle.
Any two rational numbers can be written with a common denominator so if(x,y) is a rational point on the unit circle then we can assume a = a/c, y = b/cwith a,b,c integers. To say that (x,y) is on the unit circle says that

That is (a,b,c) is a pythagorean triple if and only if (a/b,a/c) is a rational pointon the unit circle.
Arc Length Parameterization of the Circle: Radian Measure
B
O Ar
Angle AOB is defined by two rays: OA and OB
The angle cuts an arc out of any circle with center at the vertex, O.
If the length of the arc is “s” then s is some multiple of the length of the radius. That is the arc is some number of radiuses.
This number of radiuses does not depend on the radius – different circles centered at O give the same number of radiuses.
We use “radian” rather than “radiuses:
