The location of the center of the circle is (h, k) = (4, 8) and the radius of the circle is equal to 2.5.
What is the center and the radius of the circle?
In this question we must determine the location of the center and the measure of the radius of a circle. According to Euclidean geometry, diameters are the longest possible chords of a circle. First, we determine the location of the center by definition of midpoint:
(h, k) = (1/2) · (4, 5.5) + (1/2) · (4, 10.5)
(h, k) = (4, 8)
And the radius is found by Pythagorean theorem:
[tex]d = \sqrt{(4 - 4)^{2}+(10.5-5.5)^{2}}[/tex]
d = 5
r = 0.5 · 5
r = 2.5
The location of the center of the circle is (h, k) = (4, 8) and the radius of the circle is equal to 2.5.
