Equation of the circle
Explanation:
Let the center
From the given line
we can write
Using the given points (4, 4) and (9, 4)
radius=radius
also
Using now the equation
the center of the circle
compute the radius
We can now obtain the equation of the circle
God bless....I hope the explanation is useful.
