Question

Write the equation in general conic form of the circle that passes through the points
(0, 0), (0, 6), and (2, 3)

Answer 1

@experimentX

Answer 2

what is the (general) equation of circle ??

Answer 3

(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2

Answer 4

put (x,y) = (0, 0), (0, 6), and (2, 3) and solve for it.

Answer 5

but what can I put (h,k)

Answer 6

yeah ... solve for h and k and r. this isn't going to be nice.

Answer 7

you have 3 known variables ... that will give 3 equations and you have 3 unknowns ... solve for it.

Answer 8

thats the general way ...

Answer 9

i have to put all the points

Answer 10

this is the general method ... maybe there is shorter method.
