Complete the square to rewrite the following equation. Identify the center and radius of the circle. You must show all work and calculations to receive

x² + 2x + y² + 4y = 20


Sagot :

Answer:

The center is located at (−1, −2), and the radius is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

How to determine the center and the radius?

The circle equation is given as:

x^2 + 2x + y^2 + 4y = 20

Complete the square on x and y.

So, we have:

x^2 + 2x + (2/2)^2+ y^2 + 4y + (4/2)^2 = 20 + (2/2)^2 + (4/2)^2

Evaluate the exponents

x^2 + 2x + 1+ y^2 + 4y + 4 = 20 +1 + 4

Expand

x^2 + x + x + 1+ y^2 + 2y + 2y + 4 = 25

Factorize

x(x + 1) + 1(x + 1)+ y(y + 2) + 2(y + 2) = 25

Factor out x + 1 and y + 2

(x + 1)^2 + (y + 2)^2 = 25

Express 25 as 5^2

(x + 1)^2 + (y + 2)^2 = 5^2

The equation of a circle is represented as:

(x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = r^2

Where:

Center = (a,b)

Radius = r

So, we have:

Center = (-1,-2)

Radius = 5

Hence, the center is located at (−1, −2), and the radius is 5.

[tex]\qquad\qquad\huge\underline{{\sf Answer}}[/tex]

Let's solve ~

We have to use complete the square method to find standard equation of circle and identify the center coordinates and radius of the circle.

Here we go ~

[tex]\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: {x}^{2} + 2x + {y}^{2} + 4y = 20[/tex]

[tex]\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: {x}^{2} + 2x +1 + {y}^{2} + 4y + 4= 20 + 1 + 4[/tex]

[ Adding 1 and 4 on both sides ]

[tex]\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: {(x} + 1) {}^{2} + ({y}^{} + 2) {}^{2} = 25[/tex]

Now, compare the given equation with standard equation ~

[tex]\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:(x - h) { }^{2} + (y - k {)}^{2} = r {}^{2} [/tex]

  • h = x - coordinate of circle

that is :

[tex]\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: - h = + 1[/tex]

[tex]\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:h = - 1[/tex]

similarly

  • k = y - coordinate of the circle

that is :

[tex]\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: - k = + 2[/tex]

[tex]\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: k = - 2[/tex]

So, coordinates of centre is (-1 , -2)

And r in the equation is Radius ~

[tex]\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: {r}^{2} =2 5[/tex]

[tex]\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:r = \sqrt{25} [/tex]

[tex]\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: \therefore \: radius = 5 \: \: units[/tex]
