Parallel to the x-axis and perpendicular to the y-axis: zero
Parallel to the y-axis and perpendicular to the x-axis: undefined
I hope that's right, that's how I remember it
Answer:
a =
and b =
Step-by-step explanation:
As we know, the radius of the unit circle is 1 unit (it is the hypotenuse in the right triangle, the blue line)
We use trigonometric formulas to find out a and b
- Sin(45) = opposite side / hypotenuse
<=> Sin(45) = b / 1
<=> b= Sin(45)*1 =
- Cos(45) = adjacent side / hypotenuse
<=> Cos(45) = a / 1
<=> a = Cos(45)*1 = 
So: a =
and b =
x²+y²-2x-6y-5=0
x²-2x+y²-6y=5
x²-2x+1+y²-6y+9=5+1+9
(x-1)²+(y-3)²=15
(x-1)²+(y-3)²=(V15)²
-> centre of the circle: C(-1,-3)
-> radius of the circle: V15
