Question 6(a)
Start with the general equation for circles:
There are three unknowns: , , and .
To solve the three unknowns, three equations are needed.
They will be constructed from the three points that the circle passes through:
, and
Point 1 (ORIGIN):
Point 2:
Point 3:
Substitute (1) into (2) and (3), and magically, they will be simplified:
