For each of the described curves, decide if the curve would be more easily given by a polar equation or a Cartesian equation. Th
Reptile [31]

Answer:

  (a)  (x-2)^2 +(y-2)^2 = 16

  (b)  r = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) When the circle is offset from the origin, the equation for the radius gets messy. In general, it will be the root of a quadratic equation in sine and cosine, not easily simplified. The Cartesian equation is easier to write.

  Circle centered at (h, k) with radius r:

  (x -h)^2 +(y -k)^2 = r^2

The given circle is ...

  (x -2)^2 +(y -2)^2 = 16

__

(b) When the circle is centered at the origin, the radius is a constant. The desired circle is most easily written in polar coordinates:

  r = 2
