You can put this solution on YOUR website! Point A(1,3) and B (6,4) are extremities of a diameter of a circle. If P (x,y) is any point on this circle, find the equation that relates x and y.
---------------
The diameter is the distance AB
The center is the midpoint of AB --> point C
C(7/2,7/2)
The circle's eqn is
------
The eqn of the circle relates x & y
