Graphing Circles
The standard equation of a circle of radius r that is centered at a point (h, k) is (x - h)
2
+
(y - k)
2
= r
2
. In order to put an equation in standard form so that you can graph in
rectangular mode, it is necessary to solve the equation for y. You therefore need to use the
process of completing the square.
Graph the circles in rectangular mode. Solve the equation for y to put it in the
standard form.
Example
1. Graph x
2
+ y
2
= 4.
2. Graph x
2
- 2x + y
2
+ 4y = 2.

Solve the equation for y,
completing the square.
Place all variable terms on the
left and the constant term on
the right-hand side of the
equation.
Complete the square on the
y-term.
Express the terms in y as a
perfect square.
Leave only the term involving
y on the left hand side.
Take the square root of both
sides.
Solve for y.
