i realize that after graphing the circle and the point, that the answer is d. however, i'd like to know if there's a way i can figure that out without having to graph?
OpenStudy (aripotta):
i tried putting the point into the equation... like (10 - 1)^2 + (10 - 2)^2, and i got 145...does that mean anything?

145 > 144
I think that means that point P is outside circle C

so if it was exactly 144, then it would be on the circle? and less than 144, it would be inside?
OpenStudy (sleepyhead314):
yes!
OpenStudy (aripotta):
sorry, i was wrong about that :P
OpenStudy (sleepyhead314):
I was about to say ;)
TheSmartOne (thesmartone):
\(\sf (x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2\)
(h,k) is the center of the circle. r is the radius of the circle.
