To show that the ratio is not constant for the function
we only need to evaluate this function at 2 points and then show that the ratio is not the same for those two points. Note that here
represents
.
To find the counter examples here, I will use the values and
. For
, the equation tells us that the output is
. For this value of
the point is point is
. The ratio
. For the
,
. For this value of
the point is
. The ratio
. Clearly this ratio is not constant for all ordered pairs.
Check the picture below.
so, the center of the circle is the midpoint of that diametrical segment, and half that length is the radius.
