1

A standard form of equations of a circle

2m1/10
📌 Key Formula(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r², center (h, k), radius r
2

The general form of the equation of a circle

2m2/10
📌 Key Formulax² + y² + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0, center (-g, -f), radius = √(g² + f² - c)
3

Radius and central equation of circle

2m2/10
📌 Key FormulaFrom general form: r = √(g² + f² - c), center (-g, -f)
4

Equation of a circle when the endpoints of a diameter are given

2m2/10
📌 Key Formula(x - x₁)(x - x₂) + (y - y₁)(y - y₂) = 0
5

Points of intersection of a line and a circle with the centre at the origin and condition for a line to be tangent to a circle

2m3/10
📌 Key FormulaSolve line and circle equations. For tangent: perpendicular distance from center to line = radius.
6

Equation of the tangent

2m3/10
📌 Key FormulaFor circle x² + y² = r², tangent at (x₁, y₁): xx₁ + yy₁ = r². For general circle: T = 0.
7

Sections of conics

2m2/10
📌 Key FormulaIntroduction to parabola, ellipse, hyperbola as conic sections.
8

Equations of ellipse in standard forms

2m3/10
📌 Key Formulax²/a² + y²/b² = 1 (a > b), foci (±c, 0), c² = a² - b²
9

Condition for Y = mx +c to be a tangent and point (s) of tangency

2m4/10
📌 Key FormulaFor parabola y² = 4ax, tangent y = mx + a/m, point of contact (a/m², 2a/m)
10

Equations of parabola in standard forms

2m2/10
📌 Key Formulay² = 4ax, x² = 4ay, etc.
11

Equation of hyperbola in standard form

2m2/10
📌 Key Formulax²/a² - y²/b² = 1
