  2. Circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle

    The equation of the circle determined by three points (,), (,), (,) not on a line is obtained by a conversion of the 3-point form of a circle equation: () + () () () = () + () () (). Homogeneous form In homogeneous coordinates , each conic section with the equation of a circle has the form x 2 + y 2 − 2 a x z − 2 b y z + c z 2 = 0 ...

  4. Conic section - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conic_section

    Define b by the equations c 2 = a 2 − b 2 for an ellipse and c 2 = a 2 + b 2 for a hyperbola. For a circle, c = 0 so a 2 = b 2, with radius r = a = b. For the parabola, the standard form has the focus on the x-axis at the point (a, 0) and the directrix the line with equation x = −a. In standard form the parabola will always pass through the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canonical_form

    The equation of a line: Ax + By = C, with A 2 + B 2 = 1 and C ≥ 0; The equation of a circle: () + = By contrast, there are alternative forms for writing equations. For example, the equation of a line may be written as a linear equation in point-slope and slope-intercept form.

  6. Unit circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_circle

    Since C = 2πr, the circumference of a unit circle is 2π. In mathematics, a unit circle is a circle of unit radius—that is, a radius of 1. [1] Frequently, especially in trigonometry, the unit circle is the circle of radius 1 centered at the origin (0, 0) in the Cartesian coordinate system in the Euclidean plane.

  7. Parametric equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parametric_equation

    The standard method for computing a parametric form of the solution is to use Gaussian elimination for computing a reduced row echelon form of the augmented matrix. Then the unknowns that can be used as parameters are the ones that correspond to columns not containing any leading entry (that is the left most non zero entry in a row or the ...

  8. Ellipse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellipse

    The standard parametric equation is: (,) = (⁡ (), ⁡ ()). Ellipses are the closed type of conic section : a plane curve tracing the intersection of a cone with a plane (see figure). Ellipses have many similarities with the other two forms of conic sections, parabolas and hyperbolas , both of which are open and unbounded .
