In this lesson we’ll look at how to write the equation of a circle in standard form in order to find the center and radius of the circle. The standard form for the equation of a circle is (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2, where r is the radius and (h,k) is the center. Sometimes in order to write the equation of a circle in standard form, you’ll need to complete the square twice, once for x and once for y.
