Question 4
The points A and B have coordinates (5, -1) and (13, 11) respectively. (a) Find the coordinates of the mid-point of AB. Given that AB is a diameter of the circle C... show full transcript
Step 1
Step 2
Answer
Since AB is the diameter of circle C, the center of the circle is the mid-point of AB which we found to be (9, 5). The radius is the distance from the center to either endpoint A or B.
Calculating the radius (r):
Using point A(5, -1):
Now, the equation of the circle can be written as:
Substituting for r:
So, the equation for circle C is:
