Given the equation, what is the center and radius of the circle?
(X-2) ^2+ (Y+11)^2=100


Sagot :

Answer:

Center: (2, -11)

Radius: 10

Step-by-step explanation:

(x - 2)² + (y + 11)² = 100

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

-------------------------------

x - 2 = 0

  +2   +2

x = 2

------------

y + 11 = 0

   -11    -11

y = -11

------------------------------

r² = 100

r = √100

r = 10

----------------------------

Center: (h, k)

Radius: r

-------------------------------

Center: (2, -11)

Radius: 10

I hope this helps!

We are given the equation of circle (x - 2)² + (y + 11)² = 100 , but let's recall the standard equation of circle i.e (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r², where (h, k) is the centre of the circle and r being the radius ;

So, consider the equation of circle ;

[tex]{:\implies \quad \sf (x-2)^{2}+(y+11)^{2}=100}[/tex]

Can be further written as ;

[tex]{:\implies \quad \sf (x-2)^{2}+\{y-(-11)\}^{2}={10}^{2}}[/tex]

On comparing this equation with the standard equation of Circle, we will get, centre and radius as follows

  • Centre = (2, -11)
  • Radius = 10 units
