Answer:

(x+8)^2 +(y-4)^2 = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming this complete problem: "A cell tower is located at (-8, 4) and transmits a circular signal that covers three major cities. The three cities are located on the circle and have the following coordinates: G (-4, 7), H (-13, 4), and I (-8, -1). Find the equation of the circle"

For this case the generla equation for the circle is given by:

(x-h)^2 +(y-k)^2 = r^2

From the info we know that the tower is located at (-8, 4) so then h = -8 and k = 4, so then we need to find the radius. So we have the equation like this:(x+8)^2 +(y-4)^2 = r^2

If the 3 points are on the circle then satisfy the equation. We can use the first point (-4,7) and if we replace we can find the value for r^2

(-4+8)^2 +(7-4)^2 =25= r^2

So then r = \sqrt{25}=5

And if we replace the second point we got this:

(-13+8)^2 +(4-4)^2 = 25 =r^2

And for the third point we have:

(-8+8)^2 +(-1-4)^2 = 25 =r^2

And we got the same result.

So then our final equation is given:

(x+8)^2 +(y-4)^2 = 25

Mama L [17]
The remaining area that the grass will cover will be given by:
Area=[area of rectangle]-[area of the triangle]
area of rectangle will be:
A1=length*width
=20*8
=160 square feet

The area of the triangle will be:
A2=1/2absin theta
since the triangle is equilateral, all the angles are equal and the size of each angle is 60°. Thus the area will be:
A2=1/2*5*5sin 60
=18.3
thus the remaining area of the grass will be:
Area=160-18.3
=149.7 square feet
