Find the center radius and intercepts of the circle with the
Find the center, radius, and intercepts of the circle with the given equation and then sketch the graph. 2x^2 + 2y^2 - 4x + 8y + 2 = 0 The center is (Type an ordered pair.)
Solution
2x^2 + 2y^2 - 4x + 8y + 2 = 0
x^2 + y^2 - 2x + 4y + 1 = 0
x^2 - 2x + 1 + y^2 + 4y + 4 - 4 = 0
(x - 1)^2 + (y + 2)^2 = 2^2
Center = (1, -2)
Radius = 2
x-intercept,
when y = 0,
(x - 1)^2 + (0 + 2)^2 = 4
(x - 1)^2 = 0
x = 1
X-intercept = (1, 0)
y-intercept, when x = 0
(0 - 1)^2 + (y + 2)^2 = 4
(y + 2)^2 = 3
y1 = +(sqrt 3) - 2 and y2 = (-sqrt 3) - 2
y1 = -0.27 and y2 = -3.73
There is two y-intercept
Y1-intercept = (0, -0.27)
Y2-intercept = (0, -3.73)
