You should know the equation of a circle : under root (x2-x1)2 + (y2-y1)2 = r2 Where r is the radius. (x1,y1) is the centre. You are given 2 end points forming the diameter. Find the radius by using distance formula and dividing that by 2. Find the centre by finding the mid-point of those 2 given points. and then just put them in the equation of the circle. Understood? :)
