Complete the square for both x and y.\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x%5E2-2x%2By%5E2-6y%2B1=0\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x%5E2-2x%2By%5E2-6y=-1\"\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x%5E2-2x%2B1%2By%5E2-6y=-1%2B1\"\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x%5E2-2x%2B1%2By%5E2-6y%2B9=-1%2B1%2B9\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%28x-1%29%5E2%2B%28y-3%29%5E2=9\"\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%28x-1%29%5E2%2B%28y-3%29%5E2=3%5E2\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So the center is (1, 3) and the radius is 3.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Note: recall that the general form of a circle is (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2 where (h,k) is the center and r is the length of the radius.
