5 0

You could find the volume of a figure using unit cubes by placing cubes inside the figure until it is full and counting while you are placing them inside. If that is not an option you can find the measure of the figure by using the cubes to count them. Ex. With a wooden letter block you can black the unit cubes on the bottom to find out the length, place the cubes on the side in 1 layer at the bottom to find the width, then stack them up at the edge of a side to find the height. Once you have found these three numbers you can multiply them to find the volume.

Write the general equation for the circle that passes through the points (1, 1), (1, 3), and (9, 2).

Burka [1]

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that

The circle center is equidistant from all three points, the distance being the circle radius.

Any point equidistant from two points must lie on the perpendicular bisector of the line segment which join those two points.

Which is, on the line through the midpoint of the line segment, perpendicular to the line segment.

The perpendicular bisector of the line segment joining the points (1, 1) and (1, 3) will be:

$\:y=\:\frac{1+3}{2}=\frac{4}{2}=2$

The perpendicular bisector of the line segment joining the points (1, 3), and (9, 2) will be:

$x=\:\frac{1+9}{2}=\frac{10}{2}=5$

These intersect at the center of the circle (5, 2).

The distance between (1, 1) and (5, 2) will be:

$\mathrm{Compute\:the\:distance\:between\:}\left(x_1,\:y_1\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right):\quad \sqrt{\left(x_2-x_1\right)^2+\left(y_2-y_1\right)^2}$
