The only point of intersection is (0, 2). This is the solution to the system of equations
x^2 +y^2 =4, 2y=x^2 -2x+4, and y=−x+2.

To find the points of intersection between the three equations
x^2 +y^2 =4, 2y=x^2 -2x+4, and y=−x+2, we can substitute the third equation into the second one and then solve the resulting system of equations.

Let's substitute y=−x+2 into
2y=x^2 -2x+4:


2(-x+2)=x^2 -2x+4

Simplify:


-2x+4=x^2 -2x+4

Subtract
x^2 -2x+4 from both sides:


0=x^2

This implies x=0.

Now that we know x=0, we can substitute this into the third equation to find the corresponding y:

y=−x+2

y=−0+2

So, y=2.

Therefore, the only point of intersection is (0, 2). This is the solution to the system of equations
x^2 +y^2 =4, 2y=x^2 -2x+4, and y=−x+2.
