Circle o, with center (x, y) passes through the points a(0, 0), b(-3, 0), and c(1, 2). find the coordinates of the center of the circle

in your final answer, include all formulas and calculations used to find point o, x, y) the center of circle o

The center of the circle is

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the equation of the circle be

, where (-a,-b) is the center of this circle.

The points lying the circle must satisfy the equation of this circle.

A(0,0)

We substitute this point to get;

B(-3,0)

But c=0

C(1,2)

Put the value of 'a' and 'c' to find 'b'

b=-2

Hence the center of the circle is

the distance from any point on the parabola to the focus is the exact same as the distance from that point to the directrix.

if you could provide answer choices that might allow me to answer the question easier if my above answer isn't an option! (:

to rewrite a literal equation you may need to divide by a number, or by a variable.
