Answer:

A diameter of a circle has endpoints p(-10, -2) and q(4, 6).

a,  The center of circle is the midpoint of diameter:

O = ((px + qx)/2, (py + qy)/2) = ((-10 + 4)/2, (-2 + 6)/2) = (-3, 2)

b, Radius = Oq

                = sqrt((Ox - qx)^2 + (Oy - qy)^2)

                = sqrt((-3 - 4)^2 + (2 - 6)^2)

                = sqrt(7^2 + 4^2)

                = sqrt(65)

Hope this helps!

Answer:

A) (-3,2)

B) sqrt(65)

C) (x + 3)² + (y - 2)² = 65

Step-by-step explanation:

Centre: midpoint of the diameter

(-10+4)/2, (-2+6)/2

(-3,2)

Radius = diameter/2

sqrt[(6--2)² + (4--10)²]/2

sqrt(65)

Equation:

(x - -3)² + (y - 2)² = (sqrt(65))²

(x + 3)² + (y - 2)² = 65
