Answer:
3rd option
Step-by-step explanation:
We first need to find the diameter of the circle.
We know this is a square because all sides are marked by a line so this means they are equal. Let find the diagonal of the square to find all parts of the square.
The diagonal of a square is
where a is the side lengths of the square.
So this means the diagonal of the square is
The diagonal is also the diameter of the main circle. The formula for circumference is
where d is the diameter.
So the diameter is
or
The third option is correct
This problem will be solved both analytically and graphically.
The epicenter lies on a circle with radius=5 from X(3,3). Therefore
(x-3)² + (y-3)² = 25 (1)
Y(-13,-5) has the epicenter on a circle with radius=13, therefore
(x+13)² + (y+5)² = 169 (2)
Z (-5,3) has the epicenter on a circle with radius = 5, therefore
(x+5)² + (y-3)² = 25 (3)
Subtract (1) from (3).
(x+5)² - (x-3)² = 0
x² + 10x + 25 - x² + 6x - 9 = 0
16x = -16
x = -1
From (1), obtain
16 + (y-3)² = 25
(y-3)² = 9
y = 0 or y = 6
Check answers with (2).
When x=-1, y=0. obtain
(x+13)² + (y+5)² = 169 (Correct, Accept)
When x=-1, y=6, obtain
(x+13)² + (y+5)² = 265 (Incorrect, Reject)
The epicenter is at (-1,0).
Graphical solution (see the figure below).
From X (3,3), draw a circle with radius =5.
From Z (-5, 3), draw a circle with radius = 5.
The only point where all three circles intersect is (-1, 0) approximately.
