Hi,\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The given equation is \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now taking the common denominator as 4, \n" ); document.write( "multiply both sides by the common denominator. \n" ); document.write( "==> x^2 + y^2 = 4\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "This can be compared with the standard equation of the circle which is \n" ); document.write( "x^2 + y^2 = r^2\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "==> the radius = 2 \n" ); document.write( "and the centre is the origin (0,0)\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Thus the centre is (0,0) and the radius is 2 units\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Good luck!!!\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "dolly \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
