The general equation of a circle \n" ); document.write( "= x^2 + y^2 + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0 \n" ); document.write( "Centre = (-g,-f) \n" ); document.write( "Therefore the equation of the circle: \n" ); document.write( "x^2 + y^2 - 10x - 10y + 25 = 0 \n" ); document.write( "has (5,5) as the coordinates of its \n" ); document.write( "centre. \n" ); document.write( "Radius = square root of(g^2 + f^2 - c) \n" ); document.write( "Square root of (5^2 + 5^2 - 25) \n" ); document.write( "Square root of 25 + 25 - 25) \n" ); document.write( "Square root of 25 \n" ); document.write( "= 5 units \n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps. \n" ); document.write( ":-) \n" ); document.write( " |
