To find the answer, you must find the midpoint of their x-coordinates and their y-coordinates. To do that, you take the average between their x and y-coordinates.
So, in this case, it is:
x: (12+12)/2 = 24/2 = 12
y: (7-3)/2 = 4/2 = 2

So, the answer is: (12,2)

The X axis will remain the same. Then you find the distance between the y values which is 10. Since you're finding the halfway point you have to divide your distance by two, by which you'll get 5. Then you can either add 5 to -3 or subtract 5 from 7. This will give you the coordinate points (12,2).

Answer:

The three collinear poitns are D, A, and E.

Step-by-step explanation:

Collinear points are points that all reside on the same line. Since we are looking for 3 seperate points we need a line with 3 points. There are only 2 lines on the picture and only one has three lines getting you your answer.

Area and Circumference of Circles

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Pi( $\pi$ ) is the ratio of circumference to diameter for any circle.

Perimeter is the distance around a circle.

Circumference of circle $C = \pi d$ .

Perimeter of circle $= 2 \pi r$

What is circle ?

A circle is a spherical shape without boundaries or edges.

A circle is a closed, curved object with two dimensions in geometry.

Consider two small arcs AB and CD of two circles of radii x and y units, both of which make an angle of measure θ at the centers P and Q respectively.

For smaller values of θ, the arc length AB is almost equal to the length of the line segment $\bar{AB}$ . Similarly, arc CD ≅ $\bar{CD}$ .

Using the SAS rule of triangle similarity, we can say that APB and CQD are similar triangles because their angles are the same and their ratios are AP: PB = CQ: QD = 1: 1. So, it stands to reason that AB: AP = CD: CQ.

Circumference = $\pi \times$ diameter or circumference = 2 $\pi \times$ radius if this constant equals some value.
