The three points A,B,C are all points on this circle.
Each point is then equal distance from the center, that distance being the radius of the circle.
Using the distance formula, we can find the center of the circle  (x,y):
d^2 = (x-x_0)^2 + (y-y_0)^2
Plugging in points A and B into distance formula, then setting them equal to each other gives:
(x-2)^2+(y-6)^2 = (x-2)^2 + y^2
Right away we can cancel out the x terms leaving:
(y-6)^2 = y^2
Expand Left side and Solve for y:
y^2 -12y +36 = y^2
y = 3
Plug in points B and C as before:
(x-2)^2 + y^2 = (x-10)^2 + y^2
Here we can cancel the y-terms.
Expand and solve for x:
x^2 -4x+4 = x^2 -20x+100
16x = 96
x = 6
Therefore the center of the circle is the point (6,3)

Please help, I have two questions that I need answers to for 25 points!

Answer:

1) 6+7=42feet^{2}

2) Beginning (0,0,-25) end (0,-20,-25)  

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Plot these point on graph. By this you can determine the fourth coordinate(-3,4) as it is a rectangle.

So, length =7

     breadth =6

area =7*6 =42feet^{2}

2) Here height of rack is 25 feet thus it's Z coordinate is -25.

  It moved 20 feet south along Y axis thus Y coordinate = -20

  No movement in X thus x coordinate =0

Thus , beginning (0,0,-25) end (0,-20,-25)
