Answer:

5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

When we draw out our triangle, we should see that we have a right triangle and we need to solve for a leg:

Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²

12² + b² = 13²

144 + b² = 169

b² = 25

b = 5

Ok 
Probability (the point will be on unshaded part)  = area of unshaded part / area of the circle.

=   pi r^2 - s^2
     --------------            where r = radius of circle and s = length of the side of the square.

Write the equation of the circle graphed below
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

The equation of the circle is

(x + 2)² + (y + 2)² = 9

Centered at (-2, -2), with radius of 3 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The general equation of a circle is given as

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

Where (h, k) is the center of the circle, and r is the radius.

Looking at the graph, the center is the red dot. It corresponds to -2 on the y-axis, and -2 on the x-axis. So, the center (h, k) is (-2, -2).

The radius is the distance from the center of the circle to the edge of the circle. The red dot is the edge of the circle, there are 3 lines that represent 3 units, so we have a radius of 3 units.

Using these in the general equation, we have

[x - (-2)]² + [y - (-2)]² = 3²

(x + 2)² + (y + 2)² = 9

And this is the equation.
