Question

Complete the square to find the center and radius of each.. Full explanation and work Please..x2+y2+8x+8y=0

Answer 1

Therefore the center of circle is (-4,-4) and the radius is
`4√(2) =5.66`

Explanation:

`x^(2) +y^(2)+8x+8y=0`

Rearrange the terms,

`x^(2) +8x+y^(2)+8y=0`

Using completing the square method,

`(x+(8)/(2) )^(2) - ((8)/(2))^(2) + (y+(8)/(2) )^(2) - ((8)/(2))^(2) =0`

Simplify,

`(x+4 )^(2) -16 + (y+4)^(2) -16 =0\\\\(x+4 )^(2) + (y+4)^(2)= (4√(2))^(2)`

Therefore the center of circle is (-4,-4) and the radius is
`4√(2) =5.66`
