This document discusses graphing circles and converting between graphing form and standard form equations of circles. It provides examples of writing the equation of a circle given its center and radius in graphing form. It also shows how to find the center, radius, and equation of a circle given the standard form equation. The key points are: - In graphing form, the center is denoted as (h, k) and the equation is (x - h)2 + (y - k)2 = r2 - To convert to standard form, complete the square and factor the left side, moving any constant to the right side.
