Question 1207942: Write the standard form of the equation of the circle and the general form of the equation of the circle with radius r and center (h,k). Graph the circle.

r = 1/2; (h,k) = (0, -1/2)

Note: Circle is not centered at the origin.

Equation for circle with radius r and center at (h,k) is of the form %28x-h%29%5E2%2B%28y-k%29%5E2=r%5E2. Use this!

And then when you get it in the standard form,

%28x-h%29%5E2%2B%28y-k%29%5E2=r%5E2

Square the two binomials, collect terms and rearrange the terms in this
general form:

x%5E2%2By%5E2%2BDx%2BEy%2BF=0
