On a coordinate plane, the center of a circle P is at the point (2, 15) . Point M is located on the circle at (7, 3). Which equation describes circle P?

(x - 2)^2 + (y - 15)^2 = 13^2

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the general equation for a circle is:

(x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = R^2

Where:

(a, b) is the center of the circle

R is the radius of the circle.

First, we know that the center of the circle is the point P, (2, 15)

Now, we also know that point M, (7, 3), is located at the circle.

Then we know that the radius of the circle will be equal to the distance between point P and point M.

Remember that the distance between two points (a, b) and (c, d) is:

Distance = √( (a - c)^2 + (b - d)^2)

Then in our case, we have:

Distance = √( (2 - 7)^2 + (15 - 3)^2) = √(25 + 144) = 13

This means that the radius of the circle is R = 13.

Now we know the radius of the circle and the center of the circle, then we can write the equation of the circle as:

(x - 2)^2 + (y - 15)^2 = 13^2

18

step-by-step explanation:

draw the shape and you will see that f and k are actually at adjacent vertices (points of the hexagon that are neighboring).   so find the distance between (1,2) and (4,2).   that is easy since (1,2) and (4,2) is just a vertical distance to count, which is 3.   it is a regular polygon which means all sides are congruent.   you have 6 sides (hexa) so multiply 6 by 3 to receive 18.

the answer is 21%.
