Equations of Circles Completing the Square Scavenger Hunt Activity
Equations of Circles Completing the Square Scavenger Hunt Activity
During this activity, students travel around the room to find the center of each circle. For each station, students are given an equation of a circle. Each equation is written in standard conic form, and students must use the completing the square method to convert the equation to standard form. Then they must determine the center of the circle as their final answer.
Students begin by starting at a random station. This is a gre
