Google

A calculator to find the points of intersection of a circle and a line.

The equation of the circle is of the form

(x - h)2 + (y - k)2 = r2

and the equation of the line is of the slope intercept form

y = m*x + B

How to use the calculator

1 - Enter the parameters h, k and r, where h and k are the coordinates of the center of the circle and r its radius and is positive. Then enter the slope of the line m and its y intercept B and then press "enter". The x and y coordinates of the two points of intersection P1 and P2 are displayed.

Note that you may have two points of intersection, one point of intersection or no points of intersection. If no points of intersection exist "none" is displayed.
