OpenStudy (marissalovescats):

No it is a circle. It does not pass the vertical line test

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's a unit circle, and since the domain and range is not restricted, it is not a function.

OpenStudy (marissalovescats):

Take a pencil and keep it vertical Move it across the graph, if it touches the graph in more places than one than it's not a function. Which here it does because it's a circle.

OpenStudy (marissalovescats):

@seehearcreate This is not a unit circle. Its just a regular circle with a radius of 1.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can u help with some more on a different question? @marissalovescats

OpenStudy (marissalovescats):

Yeah sure

@marissalovescats Circle with a radius of 1 is called unit circle because it's what unit circle is.

OpenStudy (marissalovescats):

No one's ever taught me that, cool to know. I thought she was talking about the actual unit circle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Haha yeah. Unit circles deal with points of sin, cos, tan and their inverses..

OpenStudy (marissalovescats):

Well I know that lol Just didn't know cirlcles with radius of 1 were called a unit circle
