You want the equation in a form, \"%28x-h%29%5E2%2B%28y-k%29%5E2=r%5E2\" in which the center is (h,k) and radius is r. This is a Complete-the-Square problem.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x%5E2%2By%5E2%2B4x-8y%2B13=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x%5E2%2B4x%2By%5E2-8y%2B13=0\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The terms with x need \"%284%2F2%29%5E2=4\" and the terms with y need \"%28-8%2F2%29%5E2=16\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%28x%5E2%2B4x%2B4%29%2B%28y%5E2-8y%2B16%29%2B13=4%2B16\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "(x+2)^2+(y-4)^2=7\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Center: (-2,4)
\n" ); document.write( "Radius: sqrt(7)
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
