Question:

If the parametric form of the circle is \( x = 3\cos\theta + 3 \) and \( y = 3\sin\theta \), then the Cartesian form of the equation of the circle is:

Show Hint

To convert parametric equations to Cartesian form, square both \( x \) and \( y \) and use trigonometric identities.

  • \( x^2 + y^2 - 6x = 0 \)
  • \( x^2 + y^2 - 6x = 9 \)
  • \( x^2 + y^2 + 6x = 9 \)
  • \( x^2 + y^2 - 6x = 0 \)
  • \( x^2 + y^2 - 2x - 2y = 9 \)

The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

From the given parametric equations: \[ x = 3\cos\theta + 3 \quad {and} \quad y = 3\sin\theta \] Square both equations and combine: \[ (x - 3)^2 + y^2 = 9 \] Simplify to get the equation of the circle.
