Intersection Of A Circle And A Line

Muhtasari

A straight line can slice through a circle at two points, just touch it at one, or miss it entirely. Which of these happens is decided by a single number from the quadratic you get when you combine their equations: the discriminant. This is coordinate geometry meeting the algebra of quadratics in a satisfying way.

In this lesson you will work with the equation of a circle \((x-a)^2+(y-b)^2=r^2\), substitute a line into it, and use the discriminant of the resulting quadratic to decide whether the line is a chord (two points), a tangent (one point) or misses the circle (none). One calculation settles the geometry.

Malengo

  1. Know and use the equation of a circle with centre (a, b) and radius r.
  2. Solve problems involving the intersection of a circle and a straight line.

Maelezo ya Somo

Deciding whether a path crosses, grazes or misses a circular region is a real question in navigation, design and physics. Algebraically it reduces to substituting and reading a discriminant, which neatly ties together the circle equation, simultaneous equations and the theory of quadratic roots. It is a perfect capstone to the coordinate-geometry section.
