Question

What is the radius when the endpoints of the diameter are (5, 6) and (1, 2)?

  1. square root of 2
  2. 2 square root of 2
  3. 3 square root of 2
  4. 8 square root of 2

hintHint:

Find the length of diameter by distance between two points formula and divide it by 2 to get the legth of radius.

The correct answer is: 2 square root of 2


    If there are two points left parenthesis x subscript 1 comma y subscript 1 right parenthesis and left parenthesis x subscript 2 comma y subscript 2 right parenthesis ,then distance between two points is 

    Error converting from MathML to accessible text.
    Length of diameter = Distance between (5, 6) and (1, 2)
    d space equals square root of left parenthesis 1 minus 5 right parenthesis squared plus left parenthesis 2 minus 6 right parenthesis squared end root
equals square root of left parenthesis negative 4 right parenthesis squared plus left parenthesis negative 4 right parenthesis squared end root
equals square root of 16 plus 16 end root
equals square root of 32
equals 4 square root of 2
    Length of radius = 1 half × Length of diameter
    equals 1 half cross times 4 square root of 2
equals 2 square root of 2
    Therefore, the length of radius of given circle is 2 square root of 2.
