Question

Consider a circle whose equation is x2 + y2 – 2x – 8 = 0. Which statements are true? Select three options. The radius of the circle is 3 units. The center of the circle lies on the x-axis. The center of the circle lies on the y-axis. The standard form of the equation is (x – 1)² + y² = 3. The radius of this circle is the same as the radius of the circle whose equation is x² + y² = 9.

Answer 1

The radius of the circle is 3 units.

The center of the circle lies on the y-axis.

Explanation:

The circle equation is :

x² + (y-1)² = 3²

center: (0, 1) The center of the circle lies on the y-axis.

Radius: 3 The radius of the circle is 3 units.
