Verifying CAD Geometry for Circular Components

An industrial design technician is auditing a computer script that generates machine parts based on algebraic paths. The technician encounters a general equation in the form Ax2+By2+Cx+Dy+E=0Ax^2 + By^2 + Cx + Dy + E = 0. To confirm that this specific equation will result in a perfectly circular part, what specific mathematical relationship must exist between the numerical coefficients AA and BB?
