math answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (danjs):

point on circle(-2,10) center(-2,6)

OpenStudy (danjs):

The radius of the circle will be the distance between those two points, the center and any point ON the circle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so B

OpenStudy (danjs):

i dont know the answer yet, just figuring out the radius so far

OpenStudy (danjs):

The form for the circle is \[(x - h)^2+ (y-k)^2 = r^2\]

OpenStudy (danjs):

\[\left| r \right| = \sqrt{(10 - 6)^2 + (-2-(-2))^2} = \sqrt{4^2} = 4\]

OpenStudy (danjs):

just put in the numbers for r=4 and (h,k) = (-2,6) \[(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2\]

OpenStudy (danjs):

(x+2)^2 + (y-6)^2 = 4^2 = 16

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got it

OpenStudy (danjs):

awesome

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (danjs):

what is the radius?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3

OpenStudy (danjs):

no, the radius is the distance from the center point to the outside edge of the circle, 3 is too far

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2

OpenStudy (danjs):

The circle intersects the x axis at 2, and the y axis at 2, the circle has a radius of 2

OpenStudy (danjs):

yep, and where is the center point located in terms of x and y (x,y)
