Find an Equation for the Circle $( x - 19 ) ^ { 2 } + ( y - 3 ) ^ { 2 } = 9$

question 153

Short Answer

Find an equation for the circle.
-Center (19, 3), tangent (touching at one point)to the x-axis
A) $( x - 19 ) ^ { 2 } + ( y - 3 ) ^ { 2 } = 9$
B) $( x - 3 ) ^ { 2 } + ( y - 19 ) ^ { 2 } = 361$
C) $( x - 19 ) ^ { 2 } + ( y - 3 ) ^ { 2 } = 361$
D) $( x - 3 ) ^ { 2 } + ( y - 19 ) ^ { 2 } = 3$

• A) \(( x - 19 ) ^ { 2 } + ( y - 3 ) ^ { 2 } = 9\)
• B) \(( x - 3 ) ^ { 2 } + ( y - 19 ) ^ { 2 } = 361\)
• C) \(( x - 19 ) ^ { 2 } + ( y - 3 ) ^ { 2 } = 361\)
• D) \(( x - 3 ) ^ { 2 } + ( y - 19 ) ^ { 2 } = 3\)
