• write the equation of the circle.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the standard equation of a circle

The standard equation of a circle centered at the origin \((0,0)\) is \(x^{2}+y^{2}=r^{2}\), where \(r\) is the radius.

Step2: Find the radius for problem 11

For problem 11, since each right - triangle inside \(\odot B\) has a hypotenuse \(h = 3\) units. The radius \(r\) of the circle is equal to the length of the hypotenuse of the right - triangle. So \(r = 3\).
Substitute \(r = 3\) into the equation \(x^{2}+y^{2}=r^{2}\), we get \(x^{2}+y^{2}=3^{2}\), which simplifies to \(x^{2}+y^{2}=9\).

Step3: Find the radius for problem 12

For problem 12, if \(WN = 40\) units and \(C\) is the mid - point of \(WN\), then the radius \(r=\frac{WN}{2}\). So \(r = 20\).
Substitute \(r = 20\) into the equation \(x^{2}+y^{2}=r^{2}\), we get \(x^{2}+y^{2}=20^{2}\), which simplifies to \(x^{2}+y^{2}=400\).

Step4: Find the radius for problem 13

For problem 13, the circle passes through the point \((x,y)=(-\sqrt{7},\sqrt{21})\). Using the distance formula \(r=\sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}}\) (since the center is at the origin), \(r=\sqrt{(-\sqrt{7})^{2}+(\sqrt{21})^{2}}=\sqrt{7 + 21}=\sqrt{28}=2\sqrt{7}\).
Substitute \(r = 2\sqrt{7}\) into the equation \(x^{2}+y^{2}=r^{2}\), we get \(x^{2}+y^{2}=(2\sqrt{7})^{2}\), which simplifies to \(x^{2}+y^{2}=28\).

Step5: Find the radius for problem 14

For problem 14, the circle passes through the point \((x,y)=(3\sqrt{5},-6)\). Using the distance formula \(r=\sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}}\), \(r=\sqrt{(3\sqrt{5})^{2}+(-6)^{2}}=\sqrt{45 + 36}=\sqrt{81}=9\).
Substitute \(r = 9\) into the equation \(x^{2}+y^{2}=r^{2}\), we get \(x^{2}+y^{2}=9^{2}\), which simplifies to \(x^{2}+y^{2}=81\).

Step6: Find the radius for problem 15

For problem 15, the circle passes through the point \(P(3,-4)\). Using the distance formula \(r=\sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}}\), \(r=\sqrt{3^{2}+(-4)^{2}}=\sqrt{9 + 16}=\sqrt{25}=5\).
The equation of the circle is \(x^{2}+y^{2}=25\).
To find other points:

• For Quadrant I: Let \(x = 0,y = 5\) (since \(x^{2}+y^{2}=25\), when \(x = 0\), \(y=\pm5\)), \(y = 5\) for Quadrant I; \(x=5,y = 0\) (when \(y = 0\), \(x=\pm5\)). Another point can be found using Pythagorean triples. If \(x=\sqrt{7},y = 4\) (but we need to avoid 3 and 4. Let's use \(x=\sqrt{16},y=\sqrt{9}\) is not valid. Using \(x=\sqrt{25 - 16}=3\) is not allowed. Let's use \(x=\sqrt{25-9}=4\) is not allowed. Let's use parametric form \(x = 5\cos\theta,y = 5\sin\theta\). For \(\theta = 60^{\circ}\), \(x=\frac{5}{2},y=\frac{5\sqrt{3}}{2}\) (but we can also note that if we consider symmetry. The points \((- 4,3)\) (Quadrant II), \((-3,4)\) (Quadrant II), \((4,3)\) (Quadrant I), \((-4,-3)\) (Quadrant III) are also on the circle \(x^{2}+y^{2}=25\) (by symmetry: if \((a,b)\) is on \(x^{2}+y^{2}=r^{2}\), then \((-a,b)\), \((a,-b)\), \((-a,-b)\) are also on the circle)

Answer:

1. \(x^{2}+y^{2}=9\)
2. \(x^{2}+y^{2}=400\)
3. \(x^{2}+y^{2}=28\)
4. \(x^{2}+y^{2}=81\)
5. The equation of the circle is \(x^{2}+y^{2}=25\). Points in Quadrant I: \((4,3)\), \((5,0)\), \((0,5)\); in Quadrant II: \((-4,3)\), \((-5,0)\), \((0,5)\); in Quadrant III: \((-4,-3)\), \((-5,0)\), \((0, - 5)\) (using symmetry about the axes and the origin for the circle \(x^{2}+y^{2}=25\))
