Algebra.Com's Answer #148189 by Earlsdon(6294) ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! From the given coordinates of the end points of the diameter, (-1,3) and (-1,-3), you can see that the diameter is 6 units. \n" ); document.write( "This was found by: \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "The area of a circle is found by: \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "To graph the circle, you first need to find the equation of the circle. \n" ); document.write( "Using the standard form for a circle with center at (h,k) and radius r: \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "The center of this circle is located at (-1, 0), so making the appropriate substitutions, we get: \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "Now to graph this circle, you have to solve this equation for y and then graph the two solutions on the same coordinate plane. \n" ); document.write( "Solving for y: \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "Now we can graph these two solutions: \n" ); document.write( " |
