A triangle is formed with side lengths of 24 centimeters, 26 centimeters, and 10 centimeters. Is the triangle a right triangle?
A) The triangle is a right triangle because 24^2+10^2=26^2. B) The triangle is a right triangle because 2(24)+2(26)=2(10) C) The triangle is not a right triangle because 10^2+26^2=24^2. D) The triangle is not a right triangle because 24^2-26^2=10^2

We have two points describing the diameter of a circumference, these are:
Recall that the equation for the standard form of a circle is:
Where (h,k) is the coordinate of the center of the circle, to find this coordinate, we find the midpoint of the diameter, that is, the midpoint between points A and B.
For this we use the following equation:
Now, we replace and solve:
The center of the circle is (-8,-7), so:
On the other hand, we must find the radius of the circle, remember that the radius of a circle goes from the center of the circumference to a point on its arc, for this we use the following equation:
In this case, we will solve the delta with the center coordinate and the B coordinate.
Therefore, the equation for the standard form of a circle is:
In conclusion, the equation is the following:
