The other endpoint is (10, -8
As we know that the standard equation of circle is , where <em>r</em> is the radius of circle and centre at <em>(h,k) </em>
Now , as the circle passes through <em>(2,9)</em> so it must satisfy the above equation after putting the values of <em>h</em> and <em>k</em> respectively
After raising ½ power to both sides , we will get <em>r = +5 , -5</em> , but as radius can never be -<em>ve</em> . So <em>r = +</em><em>5</em><em> </em>
Now , putting values in our standard equation ;
<em>This is the required equation of </em><em>Circle</em>
