Options:
a. 5
b. 10
c. 6
d. 1
Please explain your answer.
Given circle equation is,
The general equation of circle is
Where, (h,k) is the center of circle
Comparing with the general equation of circle,
can be written as,
Here,
So, center of circle is,
Distance from center C (6,-1) and T(9,-5) is,
Therefore,
The answer is Option(a) 5
Distance between T(9,-5) and the center of circle is 5
