I need help??
With?
@abbie What is ur problem?
Well that is certainly less fun than a music video...
anywho, first you can find the radius by finding the distance between the two points. then choose the equation with the appropriate radius squared, and appropriate center
the generic form for a circle being (x-a)^2+(y-b)^2=r^2 where a and b are the x and y coordinates of your center point, and r is your radius
Equation of circle is (x-h)^2 +(Y-k)^2 = r^2 . where h, k are center and r is the radius.
Here r is the distance between the given two points.
the radius is 241
right?
almost right! in this case it would be the square root of 241. ergo 241 is the radius squared
r^2 = 241
is the answer C?
@abbie YES.
can you help me with a few more?
First try to find out the coordinate of the center of the circle.
is it (3,-2) ?
yes
Here ur radius is 3. which is the x-coordinate of the center. R u getting it ?
If u look into the figure , u can be sure that ,the line joining the center and the point (0,-2) , is the radius. it's length is 3 unit.
so is the answer A @mikurout
no it is B.
