Question

Find the intercept made on the x-axis by the circle drawn on the line joining(0,-1), and (2, 3) as diameter.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(0,-1) (2,3)

Mid point=(1,1)

Radius=root5

Equation of circle=(x-0)^2 + (y+1)^2 = (root5)^2

x^2+y^2+1+2y=5

x^2+y^2+2y-4=0

g=0     c=-4

Intercept made on the x-axis=2root(g^2-c)

                                               =2(2)

                                               =4
