  CONIC SECTIONS
The simplest curve of the four conic sections is the circle. A circle is the set of all points in a plane such that the distance from a fixed point (the center) is a constant (the radius). The standard equation of a circle with center (h, k) and radius r (r >0) is:

(x - h)2 + (y - k)2 = r2

Let’s write the equation for the circle that has center (3, -2) and radius 6.
