1 answer:
Answer:
x^2+y^2+z^2-10x-6y-10z +50 =0
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a sphere is contained in the first octant
Centre of the sphere is given as (5,3,5)
Since this is contained only in the first octant radius should be at most sufficient to touch any one of the three coordinate planes
When it touches we can get the maximum sphere
We find that y coordinate is the minimum of 3 thus radius can be atmost 3 so that then only it can touch y =0 plane i.e. zx plane without crossing to go to the other octants.
Hence radius =3
Equation of the sphere would be

Unfortunately there isn't enough information.
Check out the diagram below. We have segment BC equal to 120 meters long. Points B, C, D and E are all on the edge of the same circle. According to the inscribed angle theorem, angles BDC and BEC are congruent. This shows that the surveyor could be at points D or E, or the surveyor could be anywhere on the circle. There are infinitely many locations for the surveyor to be at, which leads to infinitely many possible widths of this canal.
