The standard form for the equation of a circle is :
<span><span><span> (x−h)^</span>2</span>+<span><span>(y−k)^</span>2</span>=<span>r2</span></span><span> ----------- EQ(1)
</span><span> where </span><span>handk</span><span> are the </span><span>x and y</span><span> coordinates of the center of the circle and </span>r<span> is the radius.
</span> The center of the circle is the midpoint of the diameter.
So the midpoint of the diameter with endpoints at (−10,1)and(−8,5) is :
((−10+(−8))/2,(1+5)/2)=(−9,3)
So the point (−9,3) is the center of the circle.
Now, use the distance formula to find the radius of the circle:
r^2=(−10−(−9))^2+(1−3)^2=1+4=5
⇒r=√5
Subtituting h=−9, k=3 and r=√5 into EQ(1) gives :
(x+9)^2+(y−3)^2=5
The answer would b C. 1,208 ft2
7,874 inches is the answer
Hope this helps!!!
The next step of your proof is to subtract (a/b) from both sides.
Then you get, x = (m/n) - (a/b)
Since rationals are closed over addition, (m/n) + (-a/b) is a rational number.
Therefore, x (an irrational number) = a rational number <em>This is a false statement which is a contradiction. So, the assumption was incorrect.</em>
Thus, the sum of a rational and irrational number is an irrational number. QED
