Mrs. Culland is finding the center of a circle whose equation is x2 + y2 + 6x + 4y – 3 = 0 by completing the square. Her work is shown.x2 + y2 + 6x + 4y – 3 = 0x2 + 6x + y2 + 4y – 3 = 0(x2 + 6x) + (y2 + 4y) = 3(x2 + 6x + 9) + (y2 + 4y + 4) = 3 + 9 + 4

A
(x – 3)2 + (y – 2)2 = 42, so the center is (3, 2).
B
(x + 3)2 + (y + 2)2 = 42, so the center is (3, 2).
C
(x – 3)2 + (y – 2)2 = 42, so the center is (–3, –2).
D
(x + 3)2 + (y + 2)2 = 42, so the center is (–3, –2).

Which equation represents a circle with a center at (–4, 9) and a diameter of 10 units?

A
(x – 9)2 + (y + 4)2 = 25
B
(x + 4)2 + (y – 9)2 = 25
C
(x – 9)2 + (y + 4)2 = 100
D
(x + 4)2 + (y – 9)2 = 100

In the diagram, a circle centered at the origin, a right triangle, and the Pythagorean theorem are used to derive the equation of a circle, x2 + y2 = r2.

Question illustration
A
(h + x)2 + (k + y)2 = r2
B
(x – h)2 + (y – k)2 = r2
C
(k + x)2 + (h + y)2 = r2
D
(x – k)2 + (y – h)2 = r2
