Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of this circle is (x - 3)^2 + (y - 3)^2 = 12^2.
Let's substitute the coordinates of the given point and compare the results to the above equation: do they produce a correct statement?
(-6 - 3)^2 + (-5 - 3)^2 = ?
9^2 + 8^2 = 145
Because r = 12, the above result would need to be 144, not 145, if the given point were actually on the circle. We must conclude that (-6, -5) lies just outside the circle.
81 + 64 = 144
