1. Sketch the circle of radius 1 centered at (0, 0).
(A) Write the equation of this circle.
I must use x^2 + y^2 = r^2.
The radius is 1. This means r = 1.
The equation is x^2 + y^2 = 1. Correct?
B. Does the point (3/5, 4/5) lie on this circle?
(3/5)^2 + (4/5)^2 = 1^2
(9/25) + (16/25) = 1
(9 + 16)/25 = 1
25/25 = 1
1 = 1
I say yes. Right?
