Read the following question and then select the best answer.
A circle in the x y-plane has its center at (-100,221)and a diameter of 17. Which of the following is an equation of the circle?
Answer
A
(x+100)2+(y-221)2=72.25
Answer
B
(x+100)2+(y-221)2=289
Answer
C
(x-100)2+(y+221)2=72.25
Answer
D
(x-100)2+(y+221)2=289
A
EXPLANATION
The formula for a circle with a center at(h,k) and a radius of r is:
(x-h)2+(y-k)2=r2
The length of the radius is half of the length of the diameter.
1/2×17=8.5
Using the coordinates of the center and the length of the radius of this circle in the equation yields:
(x- (-100))2+(y-221)2=8
In standard form, the equation of this circle is:
(x+100)2+(y-221)2=72.25
