Now what if we replace the r2 in the equation with a real number denoted by P, where P can be positive, negative or zero.
Use the action figure to explore the following question:
| For what values of of P does the equation Once you've done this, use the following questions to check your understanding of the effect that the value of P has on the circle.

It follows nicely that |
Now lets explore another special form of the circle equation. |
