The equation of circle having a diameter with endpoints (-2, 1) and (6, 7) is

Mathematics

Elden [556K]3 years ago

The center of the circle is the midpoint of the diameter.

The 'x' coordinate of the midpoint is  (1/2) (6 - 2) = 2
The 'y' coordinate of the midpoint is  (1/2) (7 + 1) = 4
The center of the circle is the point  (2, 4) .

The length of the diameter of the circle is the distance
between the endpoints of the diameter.

The distance between (-2, 1) and (6, 7) is

                              √ (8² + 6²)

                           = √ (64 + 36)

                           = √ 100  =  10 .

The radius of the circle is      1/2 of 10  =  5 .


Now, the equation of any circle is

        (x - [x of the center])² + (y - [y of the center])² = (radius)² .

and we have all the numbers now.

                    (x - 2)² + (y - 4)²  =  (5)² .

I'm very happy to see that this equation is actually
one of the choices !     I'll bet you are too.

The vertical asymptote of the function f(x) = 3 log(x + 3)
ipn [44]

A function has a vertical asymptote where it is not defined, and the logarithm is defined only if its argument is strictly positive: it has a vertical asymptote if its argument is zero, and is not defined if its argument is negative.

So, you have a vertical asymptote where

x+3=0 \iff x=-3

Using figure 3 at the right, AB II CD and t is not perpendicular to them, which pair of angles are not congruent?
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

  ∠5 = 95°

Step-by-step explanation:

Where the transversal crosses parallel lines at some angle not a right angle, all of the acute angles are congruent, and all of the obtuse angles are congruent. The acute angles are (obviously) not congruent with the acute angles. Any acute angle is supplementary to any obtuse angle.

Since angles 5 and 6 are a linear pair, the angle relationships of the parallel lines are irrelevant. A linear pair of angles is supplementary.

  ∠6 = 85° . . . . is given

  ∠5 is shown as obtuse, so its measure is ...

  ∠5 = 180° -85° = 95°

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

85° angles: 2, 3, 6, 7

95° angles: 1, 4, 5, 8

Any angle from the 85° angle list is <em>not congruent</em> with any angle from the 95° angle list. For example, angles 2 and 5 are not congruent.
