circle : centre
Explanation:
The general form of the equation of a circle is :
x^2 + y^2 + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0 x2+y2+2gx+2fy+c=0 centre = (-g,-f) and r =
sqrt(g^2+f^2 - c )√g2+f2−c
x^2 + y^2 + 3x - 6y + 9 = 0 " is in this form "x2+y2+3x−6y+9=0 is in this form and by comparison : 2g = 3 → g
=3/2=32 , 2f = -6 → f = -3, c=9centre =
(-3/2 ,3 )" and " r = sqrt((3/2)^2+(-3)^2-9)=3/2(−32,3) and r=√(32)2+(−3)2−9=32
