Circle Equation: Center (0,0)
For the questions below, be sure to zoom out if you need to!
1.
Suppose [i]P(x,y)[/i] = any point that lies on a circle with center (0,0) and radius 5. [br]Use what you've observed to write an equation that expresses the relationship among [i]x[/i], [i]y[/i], and [i]r[/i].
2.
What is the equation of a circle with center (0,0) and radius [i]r[/i] = 9?
3.
Suppose another circle has center (0,0). Suppose this circle also passes through the point (12, -5).[br]Write the equation of this circle. [br]
4. FINAL QUESTION:
Suppose [i]P(x,y)[/i] = any point that lies on a circle with center (0,0) and radius [i]r[/i], where [i]r[/i] > 0. [br]Use what you've observed to write an equation that expresses the relationship among [i]x[/i], [i]y[/i], and [i]r[/i].

Locus Problem (1)
In the applet below, [br][br][i][color=#1e84cc][b]F[/b][/color][/i][color=#1e84cc][b] is a point[/b] [/color]that is not on line [i]d[/i]. [br][b]Point [i]D[/i] is a point that lies ON [color=#666666]the line that passes through [i]A [/i]and [i]B[/i][/color]. [br][/b]The [color=#ff00ff][b]pink line[/b][/color] is the [color=#ff00ff][b]perpendicular bisector[/b][/color] of the segment with endpoints [i][color=#1e84cc][b]F[/b][/color][/i] and [i][b]D[/b][/i]. [br][br]Drag [b]point [i]D[/i][/b] along the line. What do you see? Describe in detail! [br] [br]Feel free to alter the locations of [color=#666666][i][b]A,[/b][/i][/color] [i][color=#666666][b]B[/b][/color], [/i]and/or [i][color=#1e84cc][b]F[/b][/color][/i][color=#666666]. [br][/color]Then [color=#38761d][b]clear the trace[/b][/color] and drag [b]point [i]D[/i][/b] along [color=#666666][b]the line[/b][/color] again. [br][br]Why does this occur?

Locus Problem (2)
In the applet below, [br][br][color=#1e84cc][b][i]O[/i] is the center [/b][/color]of the circle shown. [br][b]Point [i]D[/i] is a point that lies ON this circle. [/b][br][color=#1e84cc][b]Point [i]A[/i] is a point that ALWAYS LIES INSIDE[/b] [/color]the circle. (You can move it anywhere you'd like). [br]The [color=#ff00ff][b]pink line[/b][/color] is the [color=#ff00ff][b]perpendicular bisector[/b][/color] of the segment with endpoints [i]A[/i] and [i]D[/i]. [br][br]Drag [b]point [i]D[/i][/b] around the circle a few times. What do you see? Describe in detail! [br] [br]Feel free to alter the locations of [i][color=#1e84cc][b]A[/b][/color][/i] and [i][color=#1e84cc][b]R[/b][/color]. [/i]Then clear the trace and drag [b]point [i]D[/i][/b] around again. [br][br]Why does this occur?

Parallelogram Creation Exercises (I)
[color=#000000]In the applets below, 3 vertices of a parallelogram are shown.[br]The coordinates (x,y) of these vertices are also displayed as well. [br][br]In each task below, determine the coordinates of each parallelogram's 4th vertex. [br]Plot this point in the coordinate plane. [br]Feel free to use any of the tools of the limited toolbar when doing so. [br]Then, use the Polygon tool to construct the parallelogram.[br][br]Afterwards, use any of the tools of each applet's limited toolbar to clearly show that the quadrilateral you've constructed is indeed a parallelogram.

Endpoint (x,y) of a Segment Given Midpoint & Other Endpoint
[b][color=#c51414]Directions:[/color][/b][br][br]1) In the applet below, note the [color=#0a971e]segment [/color]with [color=#1551b5]endpoint B[/color] and [color=#c51414]MIDPOINT M[/color].[br]2) Algebraically determine the coordinates of the [color=#1551b5]other endpoint (x, y)[/color]. [br]3) [color=#1551b5]Enter in these coordinates in the input boxes provided in the upper left hand corner.[/color][br]4) If you get the problem correct, the applet will indicate this to you. If not, keep trying.[br]5) Click the "New Problem" button to create a new segment with different endpoints.[br]6) Repeat steps (1) - (5).[br][b]7) Repeat steps (5) - (7) as many times as you need in order to master this concept![/b]
