Question 37812: Please help me with the following:
A unit circle is centered at the origin undergoes transformations.
(x-3)^2 + (y+4)^2 = 25 is the resulting equation, describe the transformations the unit circle underwent.

Answer by fractalier(6550)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The unit circle centered on the origin has an equation of
x^2 + y^2 = 1
Our circle is
(x-3)^2 + (y+4)^2 = 25
Thus its radius has been increased five-fold, and it has been shifted three points to the right and four points down.
