Conic sections: circles and parabolas — Homework

Complete the square on x-terms and y-terms as two separate steps, and recover 4p before dividing by 4.

  1. 1.Identify the center and radius of the circle x^2+y^2-8x+2y+13=0.
  2. 2.Identify the vertex, focus, and directrix of the parabola y^2 = -16x.
  3. 3.Identify the vertex, focus, and directrix of the parabola (y-3)^2 = 8(x+2).
  4. 4.Explain why the general equation of a circle must have the same coefficient on x^2 and y^2 before you can complete the square into circle form.
  5. 5.A circle has center (0,0) and passes through the point (6,8). Find its equation.
