Answer:
(x-1)^2+(y+19/8)^2=2665/64
Step-by-step explanation:
The general equation of a circle is
(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2
Substituting the values of the 3 given points:
(-5 - h)^2 + (0 - k)^2 = r^2
(0 - h)^2 + (4 - k)^2 = r^2
(2 - h)^2 + (4 -k)^2 = r^2
Subtracting the second equation from the first:
(-5-h)^2 - h^2 + k^2 - (4 - k)^2 = 0
25 + 10h + h^2 - h^2 + k^2 - 16 + 8k - k^2 = 0
10h + 8k = -9 ------------ (A).
Subtract the third equation for the second:
h^2 - (2 - h)^2 + 0 = 0
h^2 - 4 + 4h - h^2 = 0
4h = 4
h = 1.
Substituting for h in equation A:
10 + 8k = -9
8k = -19
k = -19/8
So r^2 = (-5-1)^2 + (0 + 19/8)^2 =
36 + 361/ 64
= 2665/64
Answer:
Option (C)
Step-by-step explanation:
If AD is the altitude to BC, both the segments AD and BC will be perpendicular to each other.
By the property of perpendicular lines,

where
is the slope of the line AD and
is the slope of BC.



Now from the given property,


Therefore, slope of altitude BC = 
Option (C) will be the answer.
Ok from the given the best choice to go with will be option B because its going from an up right and its going to flip and rotate.
