Question 732404
Find the centre and radius of the circle given by equation:x^2+y^2-6y+8=0 
is this question missing an x how is this done?
-----
Note: x^2 is already a perfect square.  You don't have to complete it.
---------------------
Complete the y-terms.
x^2 + y^2+6y+9 = -8+9
-----
Factor:
(x-0)^2 + (y-3)^2 = 1
----
Center at (0,3)
Radius = sqrt(1) = 1
--------------------------
