Questions here.

Directrix (directrix):

You need the radius of the circle. What is the distance between the points (-7,1) and (-3,0) ?

Directrix (directrix):

The equation will be in this form.

Directrix (directrix):

Use the distance formula.

OpenStudy (tylermckinney16):

=sqrt((x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2) =sqrt((-3--7)^2+(0-1)^2) =sqrt(16+1) =sqrt(17) =4.123105625617661 =4.1231

Directrix (directrix):

Go with the exact answer: sqrt(17)

Ok thanks :)

Directrix (directrix):

The center of the circle is (-7,1). The radius is √17 Formula (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r² ( x - (-7) )² + y - 1)² = √17 ²

Directrix (directrix):

(x + 7)² + (y - 1)² = 17
