Did the centre and radius of the following circle:
\n" ); document.write( "x^2 + y^2 = 2*r*x
\n" ); document.write( "---------
\n" ); document.write( "Did it what?
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "x^2 - 2rx + y^2 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "x^2 - 2rx + r^2 + y^2 = r^2
\n" ); document.write( "(x-r)^2 + y^2 = r^2
\n" ); document.write( "The center is (r,0)
\n" ); document.write( "radius = r
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "For any value of r, the center is on the x-axis and the circle tangent to the y-axis.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
