2 2 2x h y k r

Standard form

Circles

• If the center is at (0, 0), then

2 2 2x y r

Unit circle

• Center at origin and radius of 1

General Form

2 2 0Ax By Cx Dy F • Obtained from standard form by squaring and

simplifying.• To convert from general form to standard form,

you must complete the square.• If you get a radius of 0, then it is a single point.• If you get a negative radius, then the graph does

not exist.

Completing the square

1. Get coefficients of x2 and y2 to be 1.

2. Get variable terms on one side of the equation and constant terms on the other.

3. Add the square of half the coefficient of x and the square of half the coefficient of y to both sides.

4. Factor and simplify.

Graphs of Equations

Calculus P.3

Sketching a graph

• Solve the equation for y• Construct a table with different x values• Plot the points in the table• Connect with a smooth curve

Using a calculator to graph

• Excellent tool• Make sure your viewing window is

appropriate so you see the whole graph• You may have to solve for y and plot two

equations• 1. Example: 2 29 9x y

Intercepts of a Graph

• Have 0 as one of the coordinates• x-intercepts: y is 0• y-intercepts: x is 0• To find the x-intercepts, let y be zero and

solve for x• To find the y-intercepts, let x be zero and

solve for y

Symmetry of a Graph

• Symmetric with respect to the y-axis if whenever (x, y) is a point on the graph, (-x, y) is also a point on the graph.

• Symmetric with respect to the x-axis if whenever (x, y) is on the graph, so is (x, -y).

• Symmetric with respect to the origin if whenever (x, y) is on the graph, so is (-x, -y).

Functions

Calculus P.5

functions

• For every x value there is exactly one y value.

• x is the independent variable• y is the dependent variable

Function notation

• Independent variable is in parentheses• Say “f of x”

instead of

f x x x

Evaluating functions

• Replace each independent variable in the equation with the value for which you are evaluating the function

Domain of a function

• Explicitly defined: they tell you possible values of x using an inequality

• Implicitly defined: implied to be the set of all real numbers for which the equation is defined

3. Example

• Implied that t ≠ – 1

Range of a function

• Possible y values• Determined from domain and function

4. Example

• Find the domain and range of the function

One-to one function

• To each y-value in the range there corresponds exactly one x-value in the domain.

f is not

Vertical line test

• If a vertical line crosses the graph more than once, it is not a function

Horizontal line test

• If a horizontal line crosses a function more than once, it is not one-to-one

Review of Trigonometric Functions

Calculus P.6

Angles

• Initial ray – beginning• Terminal ray – end• Vertex – where two rays meet• Standard position – initial ray at + x-axis

and vertex at origin

Coterminal angles

• Same terminal ray• 60° and –300°

Radian measure

• Length of arc of sector subtended by angle on unit circle

• 360° = 2pr• For other circles, s = rq

Evaluating trigonometric functions

• Unless it says to use a calculator or to approximate, you must find the exact answer using the unit circle.

Solving trigonometric equations

• Often there will be more than one possible answer. You must indicate this some how.
