The correct Answer is:
To find the other end of the diameter of the circle given by the equation \( x^2 + y^2 - 3x + 5y - 4 = 0 \) with one end at the point \( (1, -6) \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Rewrite the Circle Equation First, we will rewrite the equation of the circle in standard form. The given equation is: \[ x^2 + y^2 - 3x + 5y - 4 = 0 \] We will complete the square for both \( x \) and \( y \). ### Step 2: Completing the Square For \( x \): 1. Take the coefficient of \( x \) which is \(-3\), halve it to get \(-\frac{3}{2}\), and square it to get \(\left(-\frac{3}{2}\right)^2 = \frac{9}{4}\). 2. For \( y \): - Take the coefficient of \( y \) which is \(5\), halve it to get \(\frac{5}{2}\), and square it to get \(\left(\frac{5}{2}\right)^2 = \frac{25}{4}\). Now we can rewrite the equation: \[ (x^2 - 3x + \frac{9}{4}) + (y^2 + 5y + \frac{25}{4}) = 4 + \frac{9}{4} + \frac{25}{4} \] This simplifies to: \[ (x - \frac{3}{2})^2 + (y + \frac{5}{2})^2 = \frac{34}{4} = \frac{17}{2} \] ### Step 3: Identify the Center and Radius From the standard form of the circle \((x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2\), we identify: - Center \( C(h, k) = \left(\frac{3}{2}, -\frac{5}{2}\right) \) - Radius \( r = \sqrt{\frac{17}{2}} \) ### Step 4: Use the Midpoint Formula Let the other end of the diameter be \( A(h, k) \). The midpoint \( M \) of the diameter is the center of the circle: \[ M = \left(\frac{1 + h}{2}, \frac{-6 + k}{2}\right) \] Setting this equal to the center \( \left(\frac{3}{2}, -\frac{5}{2}\right) \): \[ \frac{1 + h}{2} = \frac{3}{2} \quad \text{and} \quad \frac{-6 + k}{2} = -\frac{5}{2} \] ### Step 5: Solve for \( h \) and \( k \) From the first equation: \[ 1 + h = 3 \implies h = 2 \] From the second equation: \[ -6 + k = -5 \implies k = 1 \] ### Conclusion The coordinates of the other end of the diameter are \( (h, k) = (2, 1) \). ### Final Answer The other end of the diameter is \( (2, 1) \). ---
