Center of the circle \ \

Formula:

i.e The line equation is the x - intercept a at point (a, 0) and the y - intercept b at point (0, b)

Recall: The slope formula is given for two points p(x₁, y₁) and q(x₂, y₂)

m =

Now let x₁ = a, y₁ = 0, x₂ = 0, and y₂ = b substitute in the slope formula m =

m =

Simplify

m =

m =

I hope the above steps were helpful.
