The correct awnser is B. APEX
Answer:
(x + 3)^2 + (y - 5)^2 = 17
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the radius: distance from point (-2,1) to the center from point (-3,5).
d = sqrt [(-2 - -3)^2 + (1 -5)^2]
d = sqrt [(-2 + 3)^2 + (1 -5)^2]
d = sqrt (1)^2 + (-4)^2 = sqrt 17
Radius = sqrt 17
Equation of the circle:
(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2
h = 3, k = 5, r = sqrt 17
(x - -3)^2 + (y - 5)^2 = (sqrt 17)^2
(x + 3)^2 + (y - 5)^2 = 17
AC= 10cm because B is the half point between A and C so your adding AB= 4.5 cm and BC= 5.5 cm you get a total of 10 cm, so your answer would be 10 cm
A^2 + b^2 = c^2
9^2 + 12^2 = 225
square root of 225 is 15
