Question

Graph the equation with a diameter that has endpoints at (-3, 4) and (5, -2). Label
the center and at least four points on the circle. Write the equation of the circle. @dan815 could you please help

Answer 1

i just need the equation

Answer 2

hey @highjumpcollect I'm sorry I can't help.
I can graph this it's very easy but I wouldn't know the equation...

Answer 3

ok well i just need the equation

Answer 4

all right then sorry I wish I could help I'm sure someone else will come soon :)

Answer 5

Answer 7

When you put the center of the circle on the graph, what did you give as its coordinates?

Answer 8

The answer for the circle equation will be in the format of the standard form shown in the attachment.

Answer 9

If you don't participate, I cannot help you.

Answer 10

yes sorry i was working on it.. i can't figure the radius out.. @Directrix

Answer 11

I just need to find the radius @Directrix

Answer 12

Let's try this.

Get the midpoint of the segment with these endpoints

(-3, 4) and (5, -2)

Answer 13

Get the average of the x terms and the average of the two y-coordinates.

Post what you get.

Answer 14

(1,1)

Answer 15

@Directrix

Answer 16

please help me @Directrix

Answer 17

Okay with the center.

We need one more thing, the radius.

You can get it by finding the distance between (1,1) and (-3, 4).

Then, we will fit that into the equation and be finished.

Answer 18

how is that done?

Answer 19

I got 5 is that correct?

Answer 20

Use the distance formula

Answer 21

Yes, 5 is correct.

Answer 22

YAY thank you SO much!!!!

Answer 23

Now, use this to get the equation.

Answer 24

So, what is the equation?

Answer 25

Yes, thank u

Answer 26

No, we have to get the equation.

Answer 27

(x - 1)^2 + what = what

Answer 28

yes i already got it
(x-1)^2+y-1)^2= 25

Answer 29

(x-1)^2 + (y-1)^2 = 5^2
