Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Explanation:

Data

A (10, 8)

B (5, 4)

Process

1.- Find the length of the radius

d =
\sqrt{(5 - 10)^(2) + (4 - 8)^(2)}

d =
\sqrt{5^(2) + 4^(2)}

d =
√(25 + 16) = √(41)

radius =
√(41) / 2

2.- Find the center

Xm =
(10 + 5)/(2)

Xm =
(15)/(2)

Ym =
(8 + 4)/(2)

Ym =
(12)/(2) = 6

Center = (15/2 , 6)

3.- Write the equation of the circle

(x - 15/2)² + (y - 6)² =
(41)/(4)
