Select the correct answer. A circle with center O (0,0) has point B (4,5) on its circumference, which is joined by a line to O. What is the general form of the equation for the given circle centered at O(0, 0)? A. x2 + y2 + 41 = 0 B. x2 + y2 − 41 = 0 C. x2 + y2 + x + y − 41 = 0 D. x2 + y2 + x − y − 41 = 0

Respuesta :

The general form of the equation for the given circle centered at O(0, 0) is x^2 + y^2 = 41

How to determine the general form of the equation for the given circle centered at O(0, 0)?

The given parameters are

Center = (0, 0)

Point = (4, 5)

Rewrite the given parameters are

(a, b)= (0, 0)

(x, y) = (4, 5)

The general form of the equation for the given circle is represented as:

(x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = r^2

Substitute the known values in the above equation to calculate the radius r

(4 - 0)^2 + (5 - 0)^2 = r^2

Evaluate the difference

4^2 + 5^2 = r^2

Evaluate the exponent

16 + 25 = r^2

Evaluate the sum

41= r^2

Rewrite as

r^2 = 41

Substitute r^2 = 41 in (x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = r^2

(x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = 41

Substitute (a, b)= (0, 0) in (x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = 41

(x - 0)^2 + (y - 0)^2 = 41

Evaluate the difference

x^2 + y^2 = 41

Hence, the general form of the equation for the given circle centered at O(0, 0) is x^2 + y^2 = 41
