Answer:
(x - 7)² + (y - 3)² = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The center (h , k) is the midpoint of two end points of diameter
h = (9 + 5) / 2 = 7
k = (4 + 2) / 2 = 3
Equation of circle: (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²
r = (√(9 - 5)² + (4 - 2)²) / 2 = √5
Equation: (x - 7)² + (y - 3)² = 5
Lots of red herrings in this question! The beacon is circular, so you need to find the area of a circle with a diameter of 36 inches.
Area of a circle = pi x radius^2
remember radius is half the diameter!
