Question
For the following exercises, find the equation of the sphere in standard form that satisfies the given conditions. Diameter $P Q, \quad$ where $P(-1,5,7)$ and $Q(-5,2,9)$
Step 1
The center is the midpoint of the diameter, which is the average of the coordinates of points P and Q. The formula for the midpoint is given by: \[C=\left(\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2},\frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2},\frac{z_{1}+z_{2}}{2}\right)\] Substituting the given points Show more…
