\huge\mathbb{ \underline{SOLUTION :}}

Given:


\longrightarrow\bold{(-3,5)}


\longrightarrow\bold{(5, 7)}

Calculate the average value between the x-coordinates of the diameter and do the same for the y-coordinates:


\longrightarrow\sf{C_x=(-3+5)/(2) = (2)/(2) =1}


\longrightarrow\sf{C_y= (5+7)/(2) = (12)/(2) = 6 }

\longrightarrow\sf{=(1,6)}

Answer:

(1 , 6)

Explanation:

the center of the circle is the midpoint of the diameter

Which is the point of coordinates:


((-3+5)/(2) ,(5+7)/(2) )

Then the center is the point :


(1 , 6)

If a diameter of a circle has endpoints (-3,5) and (5, 7), then the center of the-example-1
