"diameter that has endpoints at (-3, 4) and (5, -2)"

So can u find the center of the circle from that statement?

anonymous · Answer

Honestly I have no clue. xD

anonymous · Answer

I have to fine the center point and radius, from there I'll know where the four points are.

anonymous · Answer

find*

sdfgsdfgs · Answer

O is the center and it should be in the middle of the two points right?

anonymous · Answer

Yeah

sdfgsdfgs · Answer

So wats the coordinates for O

anonymous · Answer

If I know the center then I have an equation that helps me find the radius. I don't know the center, I tried to count the graph blocks but it didn't work. .-.

anonymous · Answer

I know that the slope is 6 over 8 or 6/8

sdfgsdfgs · Answer

Look at the picture...O is right in the MIDDLE....so it should be...

sdfgsdfgs · Answer

u dont even need to count the graph block...just need to look at it....

anonymous · Answer

What is O then? Is it (1,1)?

sdfgsdfgs · Answer

BINGO :)

sdfgsdfgs · Answer

u can then find the radius n plug everything into (x-1)^2 + (y-1)^2 = R^2

anonymous · Answer

THANK YOU

sdfgsdfgs · Answer

Welcome...just to be sure - wats R^2?

anonymous · Answer

Radius times itself

sdfgsdfgs · Answer

hahahaa ok but wats the value u calculated? just wanna make sure u got the right ans ;)

anonymous · Answer

Okay, I'll tell you after I do the problem!
