Picking points on circles

You can find an infinite number of nice fractions that work for the coordinates of the points on a unit circle (a circle with a radius of 1). [Pg.245]

Using the formula to find a few points, let m = 2, for example. Then [Pg.245]

The formula for these points on the unit circle comes from solving a system of equations. [Pg.245]

The Problem Find the coordinates of the points on the unit circle with its center at the origin that are shared with any line going through the point (-1,0) on that circle. Distinguish between the different lines that go through (-1,0) by letting m represent the slopes of the different lines. [Pg.246]

Find the common solution of the circle, x2 + y2 = 1 and the line y = mx + b. The particular line that goes through the point (-1,0), has an equation that can be written a little more specially. Finding the slope of this line, m, using the slope [Pg.246]
