Find the point above the x-axis on the circle of radius 11 centered at (0,0) that is 10 units away from?

Question

the point (11,0).

from the point (11,0)

Find the point above the x-axis on the circle of radius 11 centered at (0,0) that is 10 units away from?
the point (11,0)

Answer 1

use the pythagorean theorem:

10^2+x^2=11^2
x=(121-100)^.5
x=4.58

Answer 2

IF I understand correctly, you are asking for the point on the circle x²+y²=121 that is 10 units away from {11,0}

OK. The set of all points that are 10 units away from {11,0} form a circle whose equation is (x-11)²+y²=100

Solve the two quadratics simultaneously (for positive y values, there is a 'mirror image' point 'below' the x axis) and you have your answer.

Answer 3

because of the fact the centre of circle would be above the factor (5,0). for this reason, x-coordinate would be comparable i.e., 5. for y-coordinate, the radius is 6. So, y-coordinate would be 6. So the centre is at (5,6)

Answer 4

You can solve this problem by your Algebra.

Answer 5

ten units away from what?
