Chapter 11: Q.263 (page 1156)

In the following exercises, a) find the center and radius, then b) graph each circle:
$x^{2} + y^{2} - 4 y - 60 = 0$

Short Answer

Expert verified

The radius is $8 u n i t s$ and the center is at $(0, 2)$

The graph can be given as

Step by step solution

Given information

We are given an equation of the circle $x^{2} + y^{2} - 4 y - 60 = 0$

Separate the same variable and write then in quadratic equation form

We get,

$x^{2} + y^{2} - 4 y - 60 = 0 x^{2} + y^{2} - 4 y + 4 - 4 - 60 = 0 x^{2} + {(y - 2)}^{2} - 64 = 0 {(x - 0)}^{2} + {(y - 2)}^{2} = 8^{2}$

Comparing with standard equation

On comparing we get,

The radius is $8 u n i t s$ and center is at $(0, 2)$

Plot the graph of the equation

The graph can be given as

Conclusion

The center of the circle is at $(0, 2)$ and the radius is $8 u n i t s$

The graph of the circle can be given as
