What is the equation of a circle with center at the origin and radius r?

x^2 - y^2 = r^2

x^2 - y^2 = -r^2

x^2 + y^2 = -r^2

x^2 + y^2 = r^2 (correct)

What is the symmetry of a circle with center at the origin?

Only about the x-axis

Only about the y-axis

About the x-axis, y-axis, origin, and lines y = x and y = -x (correct)

None of the above

What is the equation of a circle with center at (a, b) and radius r?

(x + a)^2 + (y + b)^2 = r^2

(x - a)^2 + (y + b)^2 = r^2

(x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = r^2 (correct)

(x - a)^2 - (y - b)^2 = r^2
