Answer:
The distance between the centers of the circles with centers o and c is 5 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
- They have given that two circles with centers o and c and radii 2 cm and 3 cm touch externally.
- If two circles touch externally, the distance between their centers will be the sum of their radii.
Let the radius of the circle with center o be r1 = 2 cm
Let the radius of the circle with center c be r2 = 3 cm
Therefore the distance between their centers is given by
= r1 + r2 = 2 + 3 = 5 cm
Hence the distance between the centers of given circles is 5 cm.
