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

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

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)
