The answer to the other one is AG = 25
yea i kno my sister sent it to me
Twiddla is a good tool to use because the files you're uploading don't work. All you have to do now is make sure to use .PNG files GIF files are the worst to use. PNG is the best
ok will do thank u
and your point and divide it by 2 to get your center
(4, -3) +(-2, 5) --------- (2 , 2) then its just a matter of filling in (x-Cx)^2+(y-Cy)^2 = r^2 oh, and r = subtract the points and pythag it
forgot to divide by 2 lol (2,2)/2 = (1,1)
oh haha kool thank u
(4, -3) -(-2, 5) --------- 6 , -8 ; r = sqrt(6^2 + 8^2)
hunh, so r^2 = 6^2 + 8^2 cool
You didn't find r
i found "d" dint i
d/2 = r ;)
you removed d from dint
(x-1)^2+(y-1)^2 = something .... should narrow it down in multiple choices lol
You assume that multiple choices are available
MCs are always available, i even include them when they are missing ;)
lol
Me too
d = sqrt(6^2 + 8^2) r = d/2 = sqrt(6^2 + 8^2) r^2 = d = (6^2 + 8^2)/4
Are you sure you really have to do through all that trouble just to find r?
pretty sure, we had a meeting with the rest of my voices and it was democratically selected .... so its prolly best
maybe do rotation of axis and such was brought up, but quickly dismissed as a bad idea
You found the midpoint already
i did?
At least I thought you did
that was the midpoint departments job. we do radius and diameter extractions over here.
The the distance between the midpoint and the point on the circle would have given you the radius. You know that
=P
we'll make a note of it and bring it up at the next council of the head departments
cc my department as well
O.o
I guess you have established your own council of world mathematicians
one of thems a janitor of guatemala tho; cheaper labor costs that way
Yeah, nobody wants to pay anyone big money nowadays
why ?
cause china is hording it all ....
gonna have to go back to seashells and gophers teeth
oh my
i really should go before i wake up and find out what ive been up to ... ;)
haha
