Answer:
(3) 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the length of leg XY. Then the length of YZ is x/2 and the area of the right triangle is ...
A = 1/2bh
A = 1/2(x)(x/2) = x²/4
36 = x²/4 . . . . . use the given value for area
144 = x² . . . . . . multiply by 4
√144 = 12 = x . . . . . take the square root
The length of leg XY is 12 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:
The standard form for the equation of a circle is
From the info given, we have the center, (h, k) as (5, -3) and the x and y coordinates of (2, 5). We will use these to solve for r-squared, then plug back in what we need to write the equation.
which simplifies to
and
so
Filling in the equation:
