What is the value of h if the point h 0 is equidistant from the points -1 7 and -3 -2?

Let A = (-1, 7), B = (-3, -2) and C = (h, 0).
Then |AC| = |BC|
AC2 = BC2
so (h + 1)2 + (0 - 7)2 = (h + 3)2 + (0 + 2)2
or h2 + 2h + 1 + 49 = h2 + 6h + 9 + 4
so that 4h = 37
therefore h = 37/4 = 9.25
Further Information:
The outline is in the form of an isosceles triangle and the 1st answer is correct because the point (9.25, 0) is equidistant from the points (-1, 7) and (-2,-3)

What is the locus of points equidistant from lines y equals 0 and x equals 3?
The locus of points equidistant from lines y = 0 and x = 3 is the line y = -x + 3.
How can you place 5 points on the surface of a sphere so that any point is equal distance to any other point?
You can't. It is impossible to have five equidistant points on a sphere, with the exception of trivial cases (i.e. where the radius is 0 or when one or more points are equal).

Find all points having a y-coordinate?
All points in a plane do have a y-coordinate. Its value may be 'zero' ... if the point happens to lie on the x-axis ... but 'zero' is a perfectly good coordinate.If you want all points whose y-coordinate is not zero, then those are |y| > 0. (Absolute value of 'y' is greater than zero.)
What is the slope of the line which passes through 4-0 and 0-4?
The slope, m, of a line between two points is defined by (y2 - y1)/ (x2 - x1). Either of the two points can be labeled point 1 or 2. The points are in (x, y) format. Let's say Point 1 is (4,0) and point 2 is (0,4). Slope, m = (4-0)/(0-4) = 4/-4 = -1 = slope.

What is circular in trigonometry terms?
It is the locus of points that are equidistant from a fixed point. In parametric, polar coordinate form, the points satisfy the equations: x = r*cos(t) y = r*sin(t) where r is a positive constant (the radius) and 0 ≤ t < 2*pi radians.
