NameDate

Circle the best answer, or write your answer on the line.

  1. Ari draws a drum top on a grid: its center is C(1, 2), and it passes through Q(4, 6). Which equation is the circle?

    • (x + 1)² + (y + 2)² = 25
    • (x − 1)² + (y − 2)² = 5
    • (x − 1)² + (y − 2)² = 49
    • (x − 1)² + (y − 2)² = 25
  2. Bo draws a round flower bed in a park on a grid: its center is C(-2, 3), and it passes through Q(4, 11). Which equation is the circle?

    • (x + 2)² + (y − 3)² = 100
    • (x + 2)² + (y − 3)² = 10
    • (x + 2)² + (y − 3)² = 196
    • (x − 2)² + (y + 3)² = 100
  3. Esme draws a bike wheel on a grid: its center is C(3, -1), and it passes through Q(8, 11). Which equation is the circle?

    • (x − 3)² + (y + 1)² = 13
    • (x + 3)² + (y − 1)² = 169
    • (x − 3)² + (y + 1)² = 169
    • (x − 3)² + (y + 1)² = 289
  4. Jun draws a round cake on a grid: its center is C(-4, -4), and it passes through Q(-1, 0). Which equation is the circle?

    • (x − 4)² + (y − 4)² = 25
    • (x + 4)² + (y + 4)² = 49
    • (x + 4)² + (y + 4)² = 5
    • (x + 4)² + (y + 4)² = 25
  5. Read this first

    Grid

    The circle and the point Q.

  6. Kira draws a round clock face on a grid as (x − 2)² + (y + 1)² = 25. Is the point Q(-2, 2) on the circle, inside it or outside it?

    • outside the circle
    • on the circle
    • inside the circle
  7. Luz draws a round pizza on a grid as (x + 3)² + (y − 2)² = 25. Is the point Q(-5, 1) on the circle, inside it or outside it?

    • on the circle
    • inside the circle
    • outside the circle
  8. a circle with center C(1, -2); a radius is drawn as the long side of a right triangle under it. Pia draws a drum top on a grid as (x − 1)² + (y + 2)² = 18. Give an exact answer, simplified. How long is the radius?

  9. a circle with center C(-3, 4); a radius is drawn as the long side of a right triangle under it. Ren draws a round flower bed in a park on a grid as (x + 3)² + (y − 4)² = 50. Give an exact answer, simplified. How long is the radius?

  10. a circle with center C(2, 5); a radius is drawn as the long side of a right triangle under it. Tala draws a bike wheel on a grid as (x − 2)² + (y − 5)² = 12. Give an exact answer, simplified. How long is the radius?

  11. a circle with center C(-4, -1); a radius is drawn as the long side of a right triangle under it. Zee draws a round cake on a grid as (x + 4)² + (y + 1)² = 75. Give an exact answer, simplified. How long is the radius?

About this worksheet

Equations of circles. Every version has 10 questions, and the answer key prints on the second page.

What your child will learn

  • I can read the center and the radius from a circle's equation.
  • I can write the equation from the center and the radius, a point on it, a diameter, or a drawing.
  • I can tell whether a point is on, inside or outside a circle, and give its domain and range.

Standard: G-GPE.A.1

Words to know

center (h, k): The middle point; every point of the circle is one radius from it.

radius r: The distance from the center to the circle.

r²: The radius squared: the number on the right of the equation.

diameter: A segment through the center from one side to the other: two radii.

domain, range: All the x-values, all the y-values of the circle.

Common mistakes

Your child flipped the signs of the center.

Your child swapped the center's coordinates.

Your child used r² as the radius.

What to say

Ask: in (x − 3), what number makes the bracket zero?

Ask: which bracket has x in it?

Ask: if r² = 16, what is r?

Questions parents ask
