A circle has a center that falls on the line #y = 6/7x +7 # and passes through # ( 7 ,8 )# and #(3 ,1 )#. What is the equation of the circle?
1 Answer
Equation of the circle:
Explanation:
We have 3 equations with 3 unknows h, k, r
Using second and third equations, we can eliminate r
Our fourth equation
use the first equation now with the fourth equation
solve k:
solve for r:
Equation of the circle:
kindly see the graph of line
graph{((x-1/4)^2+(y-101/14)^2-36205/784)(y-6/7x-7)=0[-30,30,-15,15]}
God bless....I hope the explanation is useful.
