I assume there are some plus signs that aren't rendering for some reason, so that the plane should be

.
You're minimizing

subject to the constraint

. Note that

and

attain their extrema at the same values of

, so we'll be working with the squared distance to avoid working out some slightly more complicated partial derivatives later.
The Lagrangian is

Take your partial derivatives and set them equal to 0:

Adding the first three equations together yields

and plugging this into the first three equations, you find a critical point at

.
The squared distance is then

, which means the shortest distance must be

Answer: d
Step-by-step explanation:
6. the answer is 4. because u find the diameter by dividing by 2.
7. answer = 8 , the radius is 4 . so u need to multiply 2 times 4. 2 times 4 =8.
