To find the equation of a circle when you know the radius and centre, use the formula \({(x - a)^2} + {(y - b)^2} = {r^2}\), where \((a,b)\) represents the centre of the circle, and \(r\) is the ...
First, find \(m\), the gradient of the tangent. On a diagram, draw the circle and the tangent at the point P (3, -4) and draw the radius from the centre (0, 0) to the point P. The gradient of the ...
