[tex]\text{Equation of circle: }(x-3)^2+(y-5)^2=\text{ 8}[/tex]
Explanation:
endpoints (5,7) and (1,3)
The equation of circle formula:
[tex]\begin{gathered} (x-a)^2+(y-b)^2=r^2 \\ radius\text{ =r and (a, b) are the coordinates of the centre} \end{gathered}[/tex]To find the centre(a, b), we need to find the midpoint of the two given points:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Midpoint = }\frac{1}{2}(x_1+x_2),\text{ }\frac{1}{2}(y_1+y_2) \\ \text{Midpoint = 1/2(5+1), 1/2(7+3)} \\ \text{Midpoint = 3, 5} \\ \text{centre = (a, b) =(3, 5)} \end{gathered}[/tex]The radius is the distance between the centre of the circle and any of the two points.
We will apply the distance formula:
[tex]\begin{gathered} dis\tan ce\text{ = }\sqrt[]{(y_2-y_1)^2+(x_2-x_1)^2} \\ (3,5)\text{ and (1, 3)} \\ \text{Distance =}\sqrt[]{(3-5)^2+(1-3)^2} \\ \text{Distance =}\sqrt[]{4+4} \\ \text{Distance =}\sqrt[]{8}\text{ = 2}\sqrt[]{2} \\ \text{radius = distance = 2}\sqrt[]{2} \end{gathered}[/tex]Using the equation of circle:
[tex]\begin{gathered} (x-3)^2+(y-5)^2=(2\sqrt[]{2)}^2 \\ (2\sqrt[]{2)}^2=\text{ }2\sqrt[]{2)}\times2\sqrt[]{2)}\text{ = 4(}\sqrt[]{2})^2\text{ = 4(2) = 8} \\ (x-3)^2+(y-5)^2=\text{ 8} \end{gathered}[/tex]
