The endpoints of a diameter of a circle are (−3,1) and (9,6).Find the equation of the circle?
Hint: In this problem, we are not given the center or radius however we can find the length of the diameter using the distance formula (Phythagoras) and then divide it by 2. The center is simply the midpoint of the given points.

• (x−5)²+(y−7/2)²=169/4
• (x−3)²+(y−3)²=169/4
• (x−3)²+(y−7/2)²=169/4
• (x−7/2)²+(y−7/2)²=169/4
