(i) Given the points A (1, – 8), B (– 4, 7) and C (–7, – 4), show that they lie on a circle K whose center is the origin O (0, 0). What is the radius of circle K? (ii) Given the points D (–5, 6) and E (0, 9), check whether D and E lie within the circle, on the circle or outside the circle K.

  1. (i) By calculating the distance from the origin O (0, 0) to points A, B and C using the formula (x squared plus y squared), we find all equal 65. Thus, they lie on circle K with a radius of the square root of 65. (ii) For point D (–5, 6), the sum is 61, which is less than 65, placing it inside the circle. For point E (0, 9), the sum is 81, placing it outside the circle.
