rewrite in form of (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2
\n" ); document.write( "x^2+2x+y^2-6y=-1
\n" ); document.write( "complete the square of both
\n" ); document.write( "x^2+2x+1+y^2-6y+9=9, after adding 20 to both sides
\n" ); document.write( "(x+1)^2+(y-3)^2=3^2
\n" ); document.write( "The center is the additive inverse of both constants, so it is at (-1,3) and the radius is 3, the square root of 9.
\n" ); document.write( "The center is at (-1, 3)
\n" ); document.write( "
