9514 1404 393

Step-by-step explanation:

The desired parameters can be found by putting the equation into the standard form for the equation of a circle:

  (x -h)^2 +(y -k)^2 = r^2 . . . . . circle centered at (h, k) with radius r

The values of h and k will be half the coefficients of the linear x- and y-terms, respectively.

  x^2 +6x +9 +y^2 -7 = 9 . . . . . add 9 to complete the square

  (x +3)^2 +y^2 = 16 . . . . . . . . . add 7 to get the desired form

This equation shows us (h, k) = (-3, 0) and r = 4.

The center is (-3, 0), and the radius is 4.

answer: option a.

step-by-step explanation:

you know that the quadrilateral opqr ( a four sided figure) is inscribed in circle. this means that all its vertices are on the circle.

then, by definition, the opposite angles of the quadrilateral are supplementary, this means that the sum of their measures is 180 degrees.

you can observe in the figure that the angles ∠opq   and the angle ∠orq   are opposite, therefore:

then, can be used to d to calculate the measure of ∠opq
