Circles Question C1 A drone flies in a circular path around an object that is 100 feet east and 50 feet north of the drone operator. The drone's path takes it over a point that is 40 feet east and 30 feet south of the drone operator. Find an equation for the drone's path. Does the drone cross a north-south line through the operator's position? If so, where? If not, explain why. Suppose the drone operator is facing the object. Is the drone ever "behind" the drone operator? Why/why not?

Step 1

First, we need to find the coordinates of the drone operator and the object. Since the drone operator is 40 feet east and 30 feet south, their coordinates are (40, -30). The object is 100 feet east and 50 feet north, so its coordinates are (100, 50). Show more…
