If the coordinates of the endpoints of a diameter of the circle are known, the equation of a circle can be found. first, find the midpoint of the diameter, which is the center of the circle. then find the radius, which is the distance from the center to either endpoint of the diameter. finally use the center-radius form to find the equation. find the center-radius form for the circle having the endpoints left parenthesis 5 comma 2 right parenthesis and left parenthesis negative 7 comma 4 right parenthesis of a diameter.

Given

Endpoints of the diameter (5,2) and (-7,4)

Step One

Find the center

Center = (x2 + x1)/2 , (y2 + y1)/2

x2 = -7; x1 = 5; y2 = 4; y1 = 2

Center = (-7 + 5)/2 ; (4 + 2)/2;

Center = (-1 , 3)

Step Two

Find the radius squared using the distance formula. Use (5,2) as the second point. The other point is the center.

Distance squared = (5 - - 1)^2 + (2 - 3)^2

Distance squared = ( 6)^2 + (-1 )^2

Distance squared = 37

Step Three

State the circle's formula

(x - - 1 )^2 + (y - 3)^2 = 37

(x + 1)^2 + (y - 3)^2 = 37

plants store their excess carbohydrate in the form of starch so that it could be used as energy source later on. the excess carbohydrate is converted into starch in the plastid i.e. chloroplast & this process occurs in the presence of sunlight. it is an insoluble polymer of glucose which gets stored in cell organelles named as amyloplasts. in some plants, starch is also stored in roots and embryos.
