Writing and applying the equation of a circle Mathematics Instructional Plans (MIPs) help teachers align instruction with the 2016 Mathematics Standards of Learning (SOL) by providing examples of how the knowledge, skills and processes found in the SOL and curriculum framework can be presented to students in the classroom.

This resource provides a warm-up, concept development, practice and alternate assessment for Equations of a Circle.

With geometric intuition well established through Modules 1, 2, 3, and 4, students are now ready to explore the rich geometry of circles. This module brings together the ideas of similarity and congruence studied in Modules 1 and 2, the properties of length and area studied in Modules 3 and 4, and the work of geometric construction studied throughout the entire year. It also includes the specific properties of triangles, special quadrilaterals, parallel lines and transversals, and rigid motions established and built upon throughout this mathematical story.
