What is the equation of the circle with radius, r = 11 , and the center at (0, - 7)
A. x ^ 2 + (y + 7) ^ 2 = 121
B. (x + 7) ^ 2 + y ^ 2 = 121
C. (x - 7) ^ 2 + y ^ 2 = 11
D. x ^ 2 + (y - 7) ^ 2 = 11

Respuesta :

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in standard form is

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius

Given (h, k) = (0, - 7) and r = 11, then

(x - 0)² + (y - (- 7))² = 11², that is

x² + (y + 7)² = 121 → A

The equation of the circle with radius, r = 11 , and the center at (0, - 7) is    A.   [tex]x^{2} + (y+7)^{2} = 121[/tex]

What is a circle?

  • A round plane figure whose boundary (the circumference) consists of points equidistant from a fixed point (the center) is called a circle.
  • Standard equation of the circle can be given in the form

          [tex](x - h)^{2} +(y-k)^{2} = a^{2}[/tex] where (h,k) is the center and a is the radius.

How to find the equation of the circle with radius, r = 11 , and the center at (0, - 7)?

Comparing with the standard equation, we get,

  • h = 0 and k = -7
  • radius = a = 11

Putting these values in the standard equation we get,

 [tex](x-0)^{2} +(y + 7)^{2} = 121[/tex]

⇒ [tex]x^{2} + (y+7)^{2} = 121[/tex]

The equation is  [tex]x^{2} + (y+7)^{2} = 121[/tex]
