Endpoints: (10, -4) and (2, 2)
Midpoint: (6, -1) which is the centre of the circle
Distance from (6, -1) to (10, -4) or (2, 2): 5 which is the radius of the circle
Therefore equation of the circle: (x-6)^2 + (y+1)^2 = 25

What is the equation of a circle whose diameter endpoints are at 2 -3 and 8 7 on the Cartesian plane and what are the tangent equations touching its endpoints showing work?
Endpoints: (2, -3) and (8, 7)Centre of circle: (5, 2)Radius of circle is the square root of 34Equation of the circle: (x-5)^2 +(y-2)^2 = 34Slope of radius: 5/3Slope of tangents: -3/51st tangent equation: y--3 = -3/5(-2) => 5y = -3x-92nd tangent equation: y-7 = -3/5(x-8) => 5y = -3x+59
Why is the following a poor definition for a diameter. A diameter is a line segment with both endpoints on a circle.?
Some segments with both endpoints on a circle are not diameters.
Does diameter has 2 endpoints that are on the circle?
Yes, it have.
Two of the endpoints of the diameter of a circle are at A -6 and 8 and B 6 and -8 1. determine the radius of the circle 2. state an equation of the circle I appreciate the help.?

Segment through the center of a circle with endpoints on the circle?
That's a "diameter" of the circle.
What is a line passing the center of a circle with both endpoints on the circle?
It is the diameter of the circle.
What is a theorem about two lines tangent to a circle at the endpoints of a diameter?
Two lines tangent to a circle at the endpoints of its diameter are parallel. See related link for proof.
