Question

The equation of a circle is shown below.

(x + 2)2 + (y + 1)2 = 4

Niah uses the following steps to sketch a graph of the circle.

1. Obtain the center (-2, -1) and radius 2.
2. Write the equation in the form (x - (-2))2 + (y – (-1)2) = 22.
3. Draw a circle through the plot points (0, -1), (-4, -1), (-2, 1), and (-2, -3).
4. Mark the point (-2, -1) on the coordinate axis.
5. Calculate and plot the points around the center using given radius 2.

What is the correct order of steps to sketch the circle?

3, 4, 1, 2, 5

2, 1, 4, 5, 3

1, 2, 3, 4, 5

4, 2, 5, 1, 3

Answer 1

huh

Answer 2

to plot any circle, you need to find the center and radius

then you would plot the center, then plot points that lie on the circle to draw the actual circle

Answer 3

so would it be the 2nd one ?

Answer 4

very good

Answer 5

epppppp ! thank u sooo much <3 i get it now <3!

Answer 6

ok great
