The graph of x^2 - 2x + y^2 = 24 is a circle. Find the center and radius of this circle.
Add 1 to complete the square on x: x2−2x+1+y2=25
Complete the square:
The center occurs at , (x-y pair when the value of the circle equals 0).
Also, note that the constant on the right-hand side of the equation equals the radius squared, so the radius is
