Question

left parenthesis x minus 6 right parenthesis squared plus left parenthesis y plus 5 right parenthesis squared equals 16
In the xy -plane, the graph of the equation above is a circle. Point P is on the circle and has coordinates (10, -5). If Error converting from MathML to accessible text. is a diameter of the circle, what are the coordinates of point Q?

  1. (2, -5)
  2. (6, -1)
  3. (6, -5)
  4. (6, -9)

hintHint:

We know that the general equation for a circle is left parenthesis x minus h right parenthesis squared plus left parenthesis y minus k right parenthesis squared equals r squared, where (h, k) is the center and r is the radius.
The formula of distance between two points is P open parentheses x subscript 1 comma y subscript 1 close parentheses and Q open parentheses x subscript 2 comma y subscript 2 close parentheses is given by:
d left parenthesis P comma Q right parenthesis equals square root of open parentheses x subscript 2 minus x subscript 1 close parentheses squared plus open parentheses y subscript 2 minus y subscript 1 close parentheses squared end root

The correct answer is: (2, -5)


    Step 1 of 3 :
    In the xy-plane, the given equation of a circle is left parenthesis x minus 6 right parenthesis squared plus left parenthesis y plus 5 right parenthesis squared equals 16 equals 4 squared
    So, the coordinate of the center is (6, -5) and the radius is 4 unit.
    Step 2 of 3:
    Error converting from MathML to accessible text. is the diameter of the circle.
    Point P is on the circle and has coordinates (10,- 5). Observe that the y-coordinates of point P and the center of the circle are the same, viz. - 5. So, since Q is at the other end of
    diameter Error converting from MathML to accessible text., hence the y-coordinate of Q should be - 5.
    Step 3 of 3:
    Let, the coordinates of point Q be (x, y).
    Then, Error converting from MathML to accessible text.
    From the given points in the options, only the points 2, - 5) and (6, - 5) have the y-coordinate of - 5.
    Intuitively, we can observe that the Error converting from MathML to accessible text. portion in (×) becomes zero and we are left with Error converting from MathML to accessible text. part. If we put x = 2, then it gives us , which becomes 8 as we take square-root of it.
    Thus, the point (2, -5) satisfies (×).
    Final Answer:
    The coordinates of point Q is-A) (2, -5).
